CLAUSEN, GEORGE (1852- )

This article appears in Volume V06, Page 467 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CHR-CLI
CLAUSEN, GEORGE (1852- ) , English painter, was born in London, the son of a decorative artist. He attended the
design
  classes at the
South
  Kensington schools from 1867-1873 with
great
  success. He then worked in the studio of Edwin
Long
 , R.A., and subsequently in Paris under Bouguereau and Robert-
Fleury
 . He 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
 . His " Girl at the Gate " was acquired for the nation by the Chantrey Trustees and is now at the National Gallery of British Art (Tate Gallery). He was elected associate of the Royal
Academy
  in 1895, and as professor of
painting
  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).
