Although influenced by the work of James Gillray and George Cruikshank , Leech's humour was as one critic pointed out "less grotesque, less boisterous, less exaggerated, nearer to the truth and to ordinary experience."

    Extractions: But it was in work for the wood-engravers that’ Leech was most prolific and individual. Among the earlier of such designs are the illustrations to the Comic English and Latin Grammars (1840), to Written Caricatures (1841), to Hood’s Comic Annual, (1842), and to Albert Smith’s Wassail Bowl (1843), subjects mainly of a small vignette size, transcribed with the best skill of such woodcutters as Orrin Smith, and not, like the larger and later Punch illustrations, cut at speed by several engravers working at once on the subdivided block. It was in 1841 that Leech’s connexion with Punch began, a connexion which subsisted till his death on the 29th of October 1864, and resulted in the production of the best-known and most admirable of his designs. His first contribution appeared in the issue of the 7th of August, a full-page illustration—entitled” Foreign Affairs’ In 1862 Leech appealed to the public with a very successful exhibition of some of the most remarkable of his Punch drawings. These were enlarged by a mechanical process, and coloured in oils by the artist himself, with the assistance and under the direction of his friend J. E. Millais. Leech was a singularly rapid and indefatigable worker. Dean Hole tells us, when he was his guest,” I have known Mm send off from my house three finished drawings on the wood, designed, traced, and rectified, without much effort as it seemed, between breakfast and dinner.” The best technical qualities of Leech’s art, his unerring precision, his unfailing vivacity in the use of the line, are seen most clearly in the first sketches for his woodcuts, and in the more finished drawings made on tracing-paper from these first outlines, before the chiaroscuro was added and the designs were transcribed by the engraver. Turning to the mental qualities of his art, it would be a mistaken criticism which ranked him as a comic draughtsman. Like Hogarth he was a true humorist, a student of human life, though he observed humanity mainly in its whimsical aspects

    Extractions: William John Leech was born in Dublin in 1881 and studied art at the Metropolitan School of Art and later transferred to the Royal Hibernian Academy Schools, where he studied under Walter Osborne . Leech's student works and early French pictures are dark in tone, and have little in common with the sunny late paintings of Osborne with which he would have been familiar. Leech's work seems to have been divided into large-scale, highly-finished exhibition pieces, and small personal sketches done direct from nature 'en plein air.' Increasingly, Leech became interested in sunlight and deep shadow, capturing the corner of a landscape or a garden, and the sensation of sunlight, with the random eye of a camera. Leech has several points in common with Roderick O'Conor . Both studied in Paris and Brittany, Leech arriving there just as the older artist was leaving, and in the early twentieth century both painted interiors, showing an interest in indoor and reflected light. Both shared a love of color and among Irish artists can be regarded as great 'colorists'. During his years in Brittany, Leech absorbed the influences of 'plenairism' and Impressionism, and his work shows various influences such as those of
