Art of Harry Clarke
Description: 'The Art of Harry Clarke' is a personal website edited by an enthusiast of the dark fantasy illustrations of Irish artist Harry Clarke (1889-1931). The website contains biographical and bibliographic details for Clarke, who illustrated Coleridge, Hans Christian Andersen, Poe, Perrault, Goethe, and Swinburne. The author has purchased original editions, now in the public-domain, and scanned the images in order to place these online. Images are presented at a medium size, but most of the fine detail can be seen. The website also has a small number of links to external websites that contain material about Clarke.
