A mini exhibition of reproductions of paintings by James William Carling will take place at
Editions Ltd, 16 Cook Street , Liverpool 2, on the
1st – 2nd – 3rd – 4th and 7th of November.

Readers of the Scottie Press will have seen and read a number of articles about James William Carling, which have been featured in the community newspaper in support of Mike Kelly’s efforts to gain a greater awareness and appreciation of this Liverpool artist who was born in Addison Street in 1857 and who died in 1887, buried in a pauper’s grave in Walton Park Cemetery.

Mike Kelly has asked for his thanks to be given to Olwen McLaughlin at Editions Ltd for her wonderful support and to Paddy Rose (Great Grand Nephew) of James William Carling, who lives in Winconsin USA for providing the reproductions for the exhibition. Mike also thanks Chris Semtner (Manager, Edgar Allen Poe Museum – Richmond , Virginia , USA ) for his support and encouragement and for enabling examples of Carling’s illustrations for Edgar Allen Poe’s poem ‘The Raven’ to feature in the exhibition and accompanying literature.

43 of Carling’s illustrations are on display in the ‘Raven Room’ at the Edgar Allen Poe Musem in Richmond , Virginia USA – www.poem useum.org
