Pen-and-ink drawings for Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol
ca. 1880
Shown are three of Clarke's drawings (signed "Kyd," his pseudonym): "The air was filled with phantoms," "Not a knocker but Marley's face," and "Dickens invoking the Spirit of Father Christmas." Clark specialized in rendering Dickens's characters.
