Cruikshank, George (1792–1878). Caricaturist and book illustrator. Born in London of Scottish parents, apprentice in his father's print factory, Cruikshank rapidly became
Gillray's successor as leading political caricaturist, but from about 1824 turned to book illustration. As Regency exuberance yielded to Victorian gentility, he began to outlive his popularity.
