Artist

T. A. Clayton

T. A. Clayton is an Impressionism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

T. A. Clayton made a dark, detailed drawing called *Massacre of the Innocents* around 1851. The title points to the biblical story, but the style matches the serious, careful work you see in mid-1800s British art. Look closely at the faces and hands—they’re drawn with sharp lines and strong shading. If you want to see how artists handled dramatic historical scenes before photography, tap *Massacre of the Innocents* to zoom in.
