Charles Spencelayh was born in Rochester, Kent, and studied at the Royal College of Art and in Paris. Spencelayh specialized in anecdotal domestic scenes in the tradition of Victorian genre painting, most typically showing old codgers pottering around in junk shops or other cluttered interiors. From 1892 until the year of his death he exhibited fairly regularly at the Royal Academy, a record for longevity that has rarely been exceeded.
