	James Stanier Clarke's Portrait of Jane Austen James Stanier Clarke - his Watercolour Portrait of Jane Austen - Painted 13th November 1815 in his Friendship Book by Richard James Wheeler. "This is the very important, recently recognised, 19th Century Portrait of Jane Austen, painted in 1815 and discovered in the exceptional "Liber Amicorum" (Friendship Book) belonging to the Rev. James Stanier Clarke, the Librarian of the Prince Regent (later King George IV of Great Britain and Ireland).
