Richard Keene, 1825 - 1894, was born in London the son of Richard Keene and Priscilla Kimpton. The family moved to Derby in 1828 where the father took work as manager of Frost’s Silk Mill. Following his education at Thomas Sandwick’s academy in Derby, Richard junior was apprenticed to Thomas Richardson & Sons, Printers of Ashbourne, moving to their London offices. He then worked for Simpkin Marshall & Co., where he learnt about publishing and bookselling. Keene returned to Derby, setting up as a printer, publisher and bookseller at 24 Irongate in 1851.
He developed an interest in photography and with friends travelled, taking photos of Derby and Derbyshire which he began to sell as prints. In time photography dominated his business and Richard Keene & Co. became known for high quality topographical views.
He was a founder member of the Derby Photographic society formed in 1884, and a member of the Photographic Convention of the UK. His work reportedly included commissions of the Royal Family, and he was an associate of Fox Talbot. At the time of his death he had won 34 major awards.

A large collection of his photographs is kept in Derby Record Office.

He witnesses the villagers’ fatalism as falling catches, dying cork forests and encroaching tourism gradually overwhelm the traditional way of life.
