Joseph Clayton Clarke
Joseph Clayton Clarke is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Joseph Clarke had a habit of slipping into crowds at London street fairs, sketchbook tucked under his arm, just to watch the puppet shows. He turned those quick, lively scenes into oil paintings that crackle with the same humor and chaos as the real thing. His work belongs in Gallery Tiles because you can start with his painting of a Punch & Judy booth in action—it’s a doorway straight into the grit and glitter of Victorian London street life.
