He received his first lesson in drawing from George Cruickshank, and went through the South Kensington course. He commenced drawing for Clarke & Co., Paternoster Row, a title-page to one of Thomas Mayne Reid's novels being his first appearance in print.〔 Carrington came to Australia in the 1860s,〔 and after some experience on the diggings at Wood's Point, Jericho, Jordan, and Crooked River, he joined ''Melbourne Punch'' in 1866, succeeding Nicholas Chevalier and O. R. Campbell.〔 With this paper he was connected for twenty-one years, drawing the principal cartoons and many smaller blocks all through the stirring times of the Darling excitement and the "Berry blight." Carrington left ''Punch'' when it was amalgamated with The Bulletin and joined the Melbourne ''Australasian''.〔 Carrington died in Toorak, Victoria, he had two daughters with his wife Dora, ''née'' Clausen.〔 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tom Carrington (illustrator)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
