Tom Carr
Hunting and Racing Artist

Born in 1912, Tom Carr spent his early years in the colliery as a blacksmith and the war years making anchors for the Navy. Due to general ill health, Carr went to King’s College, Newcastle where he was awarded a certificate in fine art.

Tom Carr specialised predominantly in hunting scenes, mainly of the Northern Hunts (The Jed Forest and the Braes of Derwent), but works also exist of the Dukes of Beauforts, The Quorn, The Northumberland and of the Heythrop, having spent two seasons with the latter. He also frequented many races and point to point, examples of which are also available

Tom Carr also studied dry point etching under George Vernon Stokes and produced many limited editions etchings of his hunting scenes in small editions, amking them highly collectible. Etchings also exist of gun dogs and shotting scenes, though not of the quality of his hunt etchings.

Tom Carr’s work comes rarely onto the market but when it does is usually highly priced.

The Tom Carr hunting prints and etchings for sale here, represent a small selection of the many works available. If there is anything in particular that you are looking for by Tom Carr, then please do not hesitate in contacing me.
