George Clarkson Stanfield (1828 – 1878) was an English painter. Stanfield was born in London, the second son from the second marriage of his painter father Clarkson Frederick Stanfield. He received his artistic training largely from his father, and painted the same class of subjects including landscape art and marine art. He attended the Royal Academy Schools, but was not formally enrolled.
He is best known for his topographical views painted during his visits to the Rhine Valley, the Moselle, Switzerland, and the Italian lakes.
He did not paint much in Normandy
