Bronze Age Gold from Wales

Clavering Church

CLAUSEN, George (Clausen was born in London to George Clausen Senior, a decorative painter of Danish descent. He attended the Royal College of Art and South Kensington art schools, then the Académie Julian in Paris. He was a founding member of the New English Art Club and was elected Professor of Painting at the Royal Academy in 1904. He was knighted in 1927.)

Clausen was elected a full Royal Academician in 1908. This conventional landscape, without the artist's usual complement of country folk, probably dates from the following year. Clavering is a village in Essex, not far from the artist's old home at Widdington.
