Joseph Clark
Joseph Clark was born near Dorchester, Dorset. He studied painting in London under J. M. Leigh, who was himself the only pupil of William Etty, RA, the celebrated painter of classical and historical subjects. Clarke specialized in depicting domestic genre subjects of a tender nature which generally featured children and he also painted a small number of biblical subjects. In 1857 at the age of 23, he exhibited his first painting at the Royal Academy and he continued to exhibit there for all but two of the subsequent 47 years. Many Victorian painters sought to demonstrate their social conscience through emphasizing in their paintings the importance of family life and Clarke was no exception. While avoiding the overly sentimental style of some of his contemporaries, he frequently chose subjects which sought to remind people of their good fortune in having a caring family at a time when many children grew up as orphans in workhouses. Clarke enjoyed considerable success with his paintings, maintaining both a London house and a home in the country for much of his life. In 1876, he was awarded a medal in Philadelphia for his paintings The Sick Child and The Nest. The Chantrey Bequest purchased two of his paintings, Early Promise in 1877 and A Mother's Darling in 1885.
