Delighted to catch the last day of the Harry Clarke cartoon for the Honan Chapel’s St Gobnait window in the Museum of Country Life, Co Mayo. The design is considered one of Clarke’s finest works (pen & inks) with imaginative and expressive detail. One panel depicts St Gobnait (patron saint of bees) releasing her bees on a thief trying to steal her beehive. On the top of the panel the Saint has placed a white decorative line to ward off the plague. Circa 1914. The cartoon was on loan from the Corning Museum of Glass, NY.

Today we celebrate the birthday of the great Irish artist, Harry Clarke, who was born on this day in 1889. Clarke studied stained glass at the Dublin Metropolitan School of Art under stained-glass master, A. E. Child, and at the Royal College of Art, South Kensington in London.

Hugh Lane Gallery is proud to have numerous works of Clarke in its collection. These include the two outstanding stained glass works, ‘The Eve of St Agnes’ window, which was inspired by John Keats’s poem of the same name, and the beautiful panel from ‘The Geneva Window’, depicting an episode from Liam O’Flaherty’s novel ‘Mr Gilhooley’.
