This fully illustrated book traces the careers of Henry Barlow Carter (1804 - 1868) and his sons Henry Vandyke Carter (1831 - 1897) and Joseph Newington Carter (1835 - 1871). The hope of all the contributors to this book is that it will provide fresh light and original material from which readers can make their own assessments of the work and influence of these notable artists. Gordon Bell began his career as a teacher of art in primary and secondary schools. His interests in education took him into research and development and a variety of posts in universities and colleges. He has published extensively on the arts and education and was appointed Professor of Education in 1988. In this book, Gordon Bell has brought together the specialist knowledge of his co-authors, Arthur Credland and Ruth Richardson to provide an absorbing account of the life and times of a remarkable family of artists.
