Henry Clarence Whaite (1828-1912) was born in Manchester. His father, Henry, opened a gallery and picture framing
business in the town and it was from there, that Clarence learned to paint. He went on to attend Manchester School of Art.
In about 1851 he went to Wales to paint and quickly realised that there were about 10 artists in Betws-y-Coed, David Cox
being one of them, who encouraged him greatly.
He exhibited at the Royal Academy and the Royal Cambrian Academy.
