Charles Hunt, was the son of artist, Charles Hunt (1803-1877) and he was exposed to the world of art as seen through his father's eyes; he learned a lot about the genre style from Charles Sr. who frequently exhibited in private galleries until 1846, but it was not until Charles Sr. was about sixty that he presented his paintings to the Royal Academy of London; during his later years, the senior British artist painted humorous themes involving children performing in various play scenes such as police court or renditions of Shakespeare. From a rich artistic heritage derived through his father, Charles Jr. also began to paint genre scenes in a classical, traditional mode using realistic detailing.
