In addition to Linda's fine recommendation is the LIMC (Lexicon
Iconographicum Mythologicae Classicae).  There's no separate entry for
Clotho, but if you look her up as "Klotho" in the second index volume,
you'll find several references to the pictures volumes that include her
among other scenes (in Ambrosia, with Psyche, etc.).  The pictures in
the LIMC are among the worst black-and-white, but the literature section
refers to the original articles and books where the reproductions are
usually better.

Subject: Re: [ARLIS-L] Clotho

Do you know Jane Davidson Reid's (wonderful) Oxford Guide to Classical
Mythology in the Arts, 1300-1990s (Oxford, 1993). It lists 4 pages of
works about the Fates, in chronological order. Many of them are, of
course, literary. Most of the depictions of a single fate seem to be of
Atropos, but there is a listing of a painting of "Clotho the Youngest of
the Fates" by Rosalba Carriera.
