Description French politician and drawer
Français : En 1798, il s'engage comme canonnier dans l'artillerie, mais est très vite réformé pour des problèmes de santé. C'est l'occasion pour lui d'approfondir son goût pour le dessin : il fréquente alors l'atelier de David et celui de Regnault. Le recueil de dessins conservé au Conseil d'Etat montre un trait de crayon alerte et une technique éprouvée, tant dans les croquis sur le vif à la plume que dans des dessins plus élaborés, mêlant fusain, craie et lavis.

Biographie

Clarke, Henri, 1765-1818. Conseiller d'Etat en service ordinaire de l'an XIII (30 vendémiaire)à 1807, il est rattaché à la section de la guerre. Il est, à cette époque, à la fois général de division et secrétaire de cabinet de Napoléon. Gouverneur de Vienne en 1805, de Berlin en 1806 où Houdetot a donc l'occasion de le croquer, il passe en service extraordinaire et devient ministre de la Guerre de 1807 à 1814. Commandant de la Légion d'honneur en 1805, comte d'Hunebourg puis duc de Feltre. Rallié à Louis XVIII avant les Cent-Jours, il l'accompagne à Gand, redevient ministre de la Guerre et est fait maréchal de France le 3 juillet 1816.
