Anthony Dyson trained as an artist at Blackburn School of Art and graduated as a specialist teacher of art at Leeds College of Art. He subsequently gained a Doctorate in History of Art at the Courtauld Institute of Art, University of London. His thesis led to the publication of his seminal work on 19th-century British engravers, entitled Pictures to Print, Farrand Press, 1984. He has written many other books and articles on art education, printmaking and, notably, a monograph on the Polish painter Stanislaw Frenkiel (Passion & Paradox, Black Star Press, 2001).
His prints were first exhibited at the Royal Academy when he was still a student and he has since exhibited frequently there and widely elsewhere in Britain and France. His work is in the collections of the Science Museum, London, the Guildhall Library, London, the University of London Institute of Education, the University of London Birkbeck College, the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge and the Sagene Laererskole, Oslo. He has printed historic plates on behalf of the Tate Gallery, London and Harvard University, U.S.A. He is currently Vice-President of the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers, London.
