Life and work

Cary was born in Kingsbury, Warwickshire, a younger son of the Rev. Henry Francis Cary, (author and translator of Dante), who was the local vicar. His brother Henry became a judge in New South Wales.

Cary was educated at home, chiefly by his father, before becoming a pupil of Henry Sass at his well-known art academy in Bloomsbury, London. Cary later became a student at the Royal Academy and for a short time painted in the studio of Sir Thomas Lawrence. Lawrence died before Cary could become his pupil.Шаблон:Sfn
