A beautiful watercolour painting of an English harbour scene.
Painted and signed by Henry Barlow Carter.
Henry Barlow Carter was born in Bermondsey South London in 1803 but was living in Plymouth when he first started exhibiting. He then moved to Hull in East Yorkshire and by 1830 was living in Scarborough.
He painted principally in watercolours, and primarily scenes of Yorkshire, with his large atmospheric seascapes inspired by J.M.W. Turner.
He exhibited at The Royal Academy from 1827-1830 and also at the British Institution and Suffolk Street. These exhibitions are listed in Gray’s Dictionary.
