{"title":"Clausen, George","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSir George Clausen RA RWS RI ROI (1852-1944)\u003c\/strong\u003e was a British artist working in oil and watercolour, etching, mezzotint, drypoint and occasionally lithographs. He was knighted in 1927.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGeorge Clausen was born at 8 William Street in the Regents Park district of London on 18 April 1852, the son of a decorative artist of Danish descent and a Scottish mother. From 1867 to 1873, he attended design classes at the South Kensington Schools in London with great success. He then worked in the studio of Edwin Long RA and subsequently in Paris under Bouguereau and Tony Robert-Fleury at the Académie Julian. He was an admirer of the naturalism of the painter Jules Bastien-Lepage about whom he wrote in 1888 and 1892.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClausen became one of the foremost modern painters of landscape and of peasant life, influenced to a certain extent by the Impressionists, with whom he shared the view that light is the real subject of landscape art. His pictures excel in rendering the appearance of things under flecking outdoor sunlight, or in the shady shelter of a barn or stable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther landscapes included \"The Fields in June\" (1914) and \"Midsummer Dawn\" (1921). For the Imperial War Museum he painted the large, broadly decorative, \"Gun Factory at Woolwich Arsenal\" (1919). His decorative work also included \"Renaissance\" (1915) and decorations for the Hall at High Royd, Huddersfield, consisting of life-size figures in lunettes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClausen was a founding member of the New English Art Club in 1886. In 1895, he was elected an Associate of the Royal Academy, and a full Academician in 1906. He was elected as the Master of the Art Workers' Guild in 1909. As Professor of Painting at the Royal Academy he gave a memorable series of lectures to the students of the Schools, published as Six Lectures on Painting (1904) and Aims and Ideals in Art (1906).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClausen was an official war artist during World War I. During the war his daughter's fiancé, Second Lieutenant Geraint Payne, was killed; this event may have inspired his painting, \u003cstrong\u003eYouth Mourning\u003c\/strong\u003e which shows a distressed young woman mourning in a desolate landscape. Clausen also contributed six lithographs on the theme Making Guns for the Government published print portfolio Britain's Efforts and Ideals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1921 Clausen was an original Society of Graphic Art member and showed his work in their first exhibition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClausen died at home in the village of Cold Ash in 1944 and was buried there next to his wife in the parish churchyard.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"clausen-george-1852-1944-the-allotment-garden-1899","title":"Clausen, George (1852-1944) - The Allotment Garden 1899","description":"\u003cp\u003ePainting by British Impressionist George Clausen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis download consists of 1 image in JPEG format that is 600dpi and 5103 pixels wide by 3892 pixels tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe picture is out of copyright and in the public domain, so you are free to use it in whatever way you'd like, including commercial use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead more about \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/publicdomainimagelibrary.com\/collections\/clausen-george\" title=\"George Clausen\"\u003eGeorge Clausen\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digital Download - 1 image","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51047765573962,"sku":null,"price":0.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/files\/Clausen_George_1852-1944_-TheAllotmentGarden_main_deec483e-a937-48b4-b09d-2388a4e03c4f.jpg?v=1779922328"},{"product_id":"clausen-george-1852-1944-the-shepherd-boy","title":"Clausen, George (1852-1944) - The Shepherd Boy","description":"\u003cp\u003ePainting by British Impressionist George Clausen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis download consists of 1 image in JPEG format that is 600dpi and 3580 pixels wide by 5400 pixels tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe picture is out of copyright and in the public domain, so you are free to use it in whatever way you'd like, including commercial use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead more about \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/publicdomainimagelibrary.com\/collections\/clausen-george\" title=\"George Clausen\"\u003eGeorge Clausen\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digital Download - 1 image","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51047867777354,"sku":null,"price":0.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/files\/Clausen_George_1852-1944_-TheShepherdBoy_main.jpg?v=1751629722"},{"product_id":"clausen-george-1852-1944-youth-mourning","title":"Clausen, George (1852-1944) - Youth Mourning","description":"\u003cp\u003ePainting by British Impressionist George Clausen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis download consists of 1 image in JPEG format that is 600dpi and 4995 pixels wide by 5022 pixels tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe picture is out of copyright and in the public domain, so you are free to use it in whatever way you'd like, including commercial use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRead more about \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/publicdomainimagelibrary.com\/collections\/clausen-george\" title=\"George Clausen\"\u003eGeorge Clausen\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Digital Download - 1 image","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51047948910922,"sku":null,"price":0.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/7965\/7290\/files\/Clausen_George_1852-1944_-YouthMourning_main_4b9979c4-a3a0-4ab2-9c7d-e4219271353e.jpg?v=1788453448"},{"product_id":"british-impressionism-100-images","title":"British Impressionism Collection - 100 High Resolution Images","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBritish Impressionist paintings emerged in the late 19th century, characterised by vibrant colours, light-filled compositions, and an emphasis on capturing fleeting moments.
