Harry Clarke, a Dublin-born artist from 1889, dazzled the world with his stained-glass creations and enchanting book illustrations. After honing his craft at the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art, he ventured to London in 1913 to bring stories to life on the page. His debut illustrations graced Hans Christian Andersen's Fairy Tales, bursting with over 40 magical images. But it was his eerie and captivating work on Edgar Allan Poe's Tale of Mystery and Imagination that truly made him a star. Though his time was brief - just 42 years - his vibrant legacy continues to spark wonder and creativity today.
