The Clique
The Clique was a group of English artists formed by Richard Dadd in the late 1830s. Other members were Augustus Egg, Alfred Elmore, William Powell Frith, Henry Nelson O'Neil, John Phillip and Edward Matthew Ward.
They have been described as “the first group of British artists to combine for greater strength and to announce that the great backward-looking tradition of the Academy was not relevant to the requirements of contemporary art”.〔Greysmith, David, ‘’Richard Dadd: The Rock and Castle of Seclusion’’, London, Studio Vistas, 1973, p.76〕
==Foundation==
Information about the activities of The Clique derives mainly from the reminiscences of Frith and a short essay published in ''The Art Journal'' in 1898 by Gilbert Imray, a friend of the group. Both state that the group called themselves by this name at the time and that they formed a sketching club. Imray describes the aspirations of some members and explains that at their meetings they would all produce drawings on the same subject and ask non-artists such as Imray to judge the merits of the works.〔Imray, J., ''A Reminiscence of Sixty Years Ago'', ''Art Journal'', 1898, p.202.〕
They met together at the end of the 1830s and early 1840s. The group broke up in 1843 when Dadd became insane and was incarcerated after murdering his father. The others all became successful members of the Royal Academy of Arts (though O'Neil only became an associate member, not a full member). Their work was supported by the newly founded periodical ''The Art Journal''.
