Richard "Dickie" Doyle (18 September 1824 – 10 December 1883)[1] was a British illustrator of the Victorian era. His work frequently appeared, amongst other places, in Punch magazine; he drew the cover of the first issue, and designed the magazine's masthead, a design that was used for over a century.[2][1]
