BIOGRAPHY: William Albert Clark was born in Islington on 3 January 1880 to animal painter Albert Clark and his second wife Harriet Jane (nee Ireland). He is actually named Albert William on his birth certificate but was presumably known by his middle name to avoid confusion with his father. Like his father and older half-brother Frederick Albert Clark, William specialised in portraits of horses, sometimes with their jockeys, or carriages and drivers. He also painted prize cattle and the occasional dog portrait. There is at least one version of "The Runaway Horse" (a painting originally created by his grandfather James Clark) attributed to William Albert Clark, named "Breaking Loose".
