Victorian Frederic Leighton was a painter of history, antiquity, and portraiture, who was knighted and made a peer in recognition of his artistic contribution. Here we see Leighton’s likeness of the fifteen-year-old daughter of a renowned opera singer, in a moody rendering that hints at mortality as much as it celebrates beauty. A Mixed-Media painting from Art Chateau.
