Rending of Coffin — Harry Clarke's Poe, 1923
This is Harry Clarke's masterwork illustration for Edgar Allan Poe's tales—a coffin torn open by invisible hands, rendered in Clarke's signature obsessive linework. Created in 1923, it captures the Gothic intensity that defined Clarke's vision of Poe's supernatural terrors. This is your chance to bring it home.
About the Artist
Harry Clarke (1889–1931) was an Irish stained glass artist and illustrator whose delicate, dense line technique created worlds of extraordinary detail. His 1923 illustrations for Poe are considered among the finest visualizations of the American master's work. Clarke's intricate style—every shadow built from thousands of deliberate marks—transformed illustration into fine art. He remains revered for marrying Irish craftsmanship with Gothic intensity.
