Henry George Todd

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Henry George Todd (20 January 1847, in Bury St Edmunds – 30 June 1898, in Ipswich) was an English artist active in Suffolk.

Henry was the son of George Todd (1820–1904), a painter and decorator and grainer to whom he became apprenticed.[1] In 1865 he attended art school and later progressed onto the Royal College of Art. He returned to Bury St Edmunds but then moved to Ipswich living at 1 Rope Walk by 1871. He worked for Alfred Stearn & Son, whose decorating company was highly regarded. Henry worked full-time, completing a number of commissions for shop fronts.

He is buried in Old Ipswich Cemetery.[1]
