Artist Biography

Harold Hemingway was a painter of local topography, born in Rochdale, who worked as a stage designer and in the textile industry at John Bright's Mill, eventually as a carpet designer.

Hemingway studied part-time at Rochdale School of Art and exhibited his pictures of Rochdale painted between the 1930’s and 1970’s only locally as far as I can ascertain. In the 1950's Hemingway and his friend L S Lowry would walk around Rochdale recording planned for demolition buildings which would then be painted by Hemingway.

He was a member of Rochdale Art Society and the Lancashire Group of Arts and received commissions for Rochdale Corporation. Example of his work is in Rochdale Art Gallery.
