Georges Jules Victor Clairin (1843-1919), French painter.
He is renowned for his portraits of Sarah Bernhardt (1844-1923), to whom he was bounded by a beautiful friendship ; he portrayed her in many of the roles in which she has distinguished herself.
His paintings will for the most part be Orientalist, as the result of his numerous travels and his thirst for original and new aesthetics.
