"At the age of fourteen George Clausen was apprenticed to the drawing offices of Messrs. Trollope, a London firm of decorators. While working there he attended evening classes at the National Art Training School, South Kensington. In his twenties, developing as a painter, he took inspiration from the work of Jean-François Millet and Jules Bastien-Lepage. By 1880 he had settled in the Essex countryside. Clausen's work was chiefly concerned with "the life of the country labourer, his actions and the land he worked on, a literal truth raised to a higher power by his sense of design and his lyrical feeling for the beauty of light."
