EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the early 1910s, Reg Carter, a renowned freelance artist, is captured outside his studio at Granville House in Southwold, Suffolk. The quaint, red-brick building with white trim, located on the bustling High Street, serves as the backdrop for this intriguing portrait. Reg Carter, born in 1886, was a prolific artist who made a name for himself in the commercial art world. Dressed in a slim, dark jacket, a crisp white shirt, and a stylish bowtie, Carter exudes an air of sophistication and professionalism. His hands are casually tucked into the pockets of his trousers, while his gaze is fixed on the horizon, perhaps contemplating his next artistic endeavor. This photograph holds particular significance as it was taken in the year that Carter gave painting lessons to a young Harold Auerbach during his holiday in Southwold. Auerbach, who would later become a celebrated British painter in his own right, would have been inspired by Carter's artistic prowess and dedication to his craft. The scene is further enhanced by the charming architectural details of Granville House and the surrounding buildings, which evoke the unique character of Southwold in East Anglia during the early 20th century. The photograph captures a moment in time, a snapshot of a bygone era, and serves as a testament to the enduring power of art and the creative spirit.
