"Claire Clairmont 1798-1879" is an oil painting by the Irish artist Amelia Curran, depicting Clara Mary Jane Clairmont, known as Claire Clairmont, who was a stepsister of writer Mary Shelley and the mother of Lord Byron's daughter Allegra. Amelia Curran, a friend of the Shelley circle, is best known for her portraits of literary figures of the Romantic era, including her famous portrait of the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley.

The painting of Claire Clairmont is significant as it captures the likeness of a woman who played an important role in the lives of two of the most celebrated figures of English Romanticism. Clairmont was an integral part of the Shelley-Byron circle and her life intersected with the tumultuous and creative lives of the poets in a way that has intrigued biographers and scholars for centuries.

The portrait is a valuable historical artifact, providing insight into the fashion and aesthetics of the early 19th century, as well as into the personal history of the sitter. As with many of Curran's works, the painting is characterized by its detailed representation and the sensitive portrayal of the subject's personality. The artwork is also an important piece within the broader context of female artists of the time, who often faced significant challenges in gaining recognition and establishing themselves in the art world.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, it is believed to have been painted during the period when Curran was in close contact with the Shelley circle, likely between 1819 and 1822, when she lived in Italy. The current location of the painting or its history of ownership is not widely known, which may affect the availability of detailed information about the work.

The portrait of Claire Clairmont by Amelia Curran remains an important work for its artistic merit and for its connection to the rich tapestry of Romantic literary history.
