"Only an artist could make such pictures by camera as those by Pegg Clarke, a very beautiful sample of which (Mist on the Mountains) was hung, in the London Salon, 1921."

"Pegg Clarke (Melbourne) has made of photography a consummate art. On gazing at her photographs, several of what one might aptly term "treescapes" having a soft melting grace reminiscent of a Corot without colouring, makes it absolutely indifferent to academic discussions of whether photography is an art or a craft."
