John Bernard Partridge (1861–1945) was an English illustrator. Born in London, he was the son of Professor Richard Partridge, F.R.S., president of the Royal College of Surgeons, and nephew of John Partridge (1790–1872), portrait-painter extraordinary to Queen Victoria.

Partridge was educated at Stonyhurst College, and after matriculating at the University of London entered the office of Dunn & Hansom, architects. He then joined for a couple of years a firm of stained-glass designers (Layers, Barraud & Westlake), learning drapery and ornament; and then studied and executed church ornament under Philip Westlake, 1880–1884. He began illustration for the press and practised watercolour painting, but his chief success was derived from book illustration.

In 1892 he joined the staff of "Punch "and, in 1901, became its chief cartoonist, replacing John Tenniel. He was elected a member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours and of the Pastel Society. For some years he was well known as an actor under the name of Bernard Gould.
