Jean-Paul Clarke – A Contribution to his Biography, Drawing and Portraits
Slaven Perović
; The Mimara Museum, Zagreb
Abstract
The author publishes nine unknown drawings by Jean-Paul Clark preserved in a private collection in Croatia and an overview of Clarke’s signatures and monograms. By contacting the artist’s son he obtained basic information on Clarke’s life which enabled him to draw a biography of this almost completely forgotten artist. The author emphasized the high level of Clarke’s drawing skills, especially evident on drawings produced during his captivity in Prussia during the Second World War.
