Artist Biography
Born in London, Henry Barlow Carter (1795–1867) moved to Kingston upon Hull, Yorkshire, in 1830 to work as a drawing master. He went on to settle with his wife at Scarborough on the Yorkshire coast. It was here that he was inspired to paint Yorkshire's bracing coastal landscape, for which he became best-known.
