'Introduction to Frank Hyde's gallery'.

Frank Hyde 1919


The above photo is of Frank Hyde (1919).

This virtual gallery was started in July 2002 and there is now about fifty paintings in it (2012). Alan Hyde a great great grandson of Frank's father Captain Francis Hyde assisted with the initial creation of this gallery by supplying many images. At a later date he intends publishing a book on Frank.

The expansion of the gallery is heavily dependent on receiving images of existing pictures and obviously many people have been very generous in this regard.

I have chosen the gallery format such that new pictures can be added shortly after they have been received. I try to put new pictures in as soon as they become available.

Note:
On the 20 October 2017, a cousin - Ken Hyde, sent me an email with a file attached containing a list of every reference to Frank Hyde the painter that is contained in the "British Newspaper Archives".

The extensive list is in chronological order but it has not been fully corrected for spelling mistakes etc. so in places it is possibly a good example of the capabilities of early OCR technology.

The PDF file below, which is available for download, could form a good starting point for research into the life of Frank Hyde.
