{"title":"Clarke, Harry","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHenry Patrick Clarke RHA (1889-1931)\u003c\/strong\u003e was an Irish stained-glass artist and book illustrator. Born in Dublin, he was a leading figure in the Irish Arts and Crafts Movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis work was influenced by both the Art Nouveau and Art Deco movements. His stained glass was particularly informed by the French Symbolist movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe was born on 17 March 1889, the younger son and third child of Joshua Clarke and Brigid (née MacGonigal) Clarke. Joshua Clarke was a church decorator who moved to Dublin from Leeds in 1877 and started a decorating business, Joshua Clarke \u0026amp; Sons, which later incorporated a stained glass division. Through his work with his father, Clarke was exposed to many schools of art but Art Nouveau in particular.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClarke was educated at the Model School in Marlborough Street, Dublin and Belvedere College, which he left in 1905. He was devastated by the death of his mother in 1903 when he was only 14 years old. Clarke was then apprenticed into his father's studio and attended evening classes in the Metropolitan College of Art and Design. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the art school in Dublin, Clarke met fellow artist and teacher, Margaret Crilley. They married on 31 October 1914 and moved into a flat at 33 North Frederick Street. In subsequent years the Clarkes lived in various locations in Dublin, including a semi-detached house in Cabra in which Margaret Clarke painted her husband at work. The Clarkes had three children, Michael, David, and Ann.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFairy Tales\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eby Hans Christian Andersen\u003c\/strong\u003e was his first printed work in 1916. It included 16 colour plates and more than 24 halftone illustrations. This was followed by illustrations for an edition of Edgar Allan \u003cstrong\u003ePoe's Tales of Mystery and Imagination\u003c\/strong\u003e: the first version of that title was restricted to halftone illustrations, while a second with eight colour plates and more than 24 halftone images was published in 1923.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 1923 edition made his reputation as a book illustrator, during the golden age of gift-book illustration in the first quarter of the twentieth century.
