Clark

US art collectors. Robert was an heir of the Singer sewing machine fortune. The Clarks settled in Williamstown, Massachusetts in 1949; there they collected Old Master and 19th-century American paintings, and more especially works by Degas and Renoir, among other French Impressionists.

Born in New York City, he was the grandson of Edward Clark, the business partner of Isaac Singer. Robert graduated from Yale, served in the army until 1905, and led a scientific expedition to China 1908-09. He settled in Paris as an art collector in 1911, and married Francine in 1919. Little is known of Francine's early life, although she was born in France. The Clarks moved to New York City in the 1920s. In 1955 the Clarks established the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown and both are buried beneath the front steps of the original marble building.
