Dion Clayton Calthrop's family ties were, without exaggeration, steeped in artistic talent. His father was a comedian, and his mother was an American actress and the daughter of a writer. Dion's brother preferred to work behind the scenes and look after the welfare of actors. A family seemingly bubbling with creativity and not necessarily conforming to bourgeois conventions. The Victorian era modernized British society and moderately changed the rigid, conservative mindset. The career of a family's sons was still determined by the family's social standing. Dion Clayton Calthrop, therefore, was given a cornucopia of opportunities to pursue professionally. He studied at the newly founded art school St. John's Wood in North London and later intensified his studies in Paris. Shortly after his studies ended, he was already a sought-after painter and illustrator. Calthrop drew on his talents and artistic freedom. In addition to art, he devoted himself to literature and began to write.
