Academic painter Valentine Prinsep was a close friend and student of George Frederic Watts and a pupil of Marc-Charles-Gabriel Gleyre and Whistler, Poynter, and du Maurier. “The Bientot” features the medievalist style of lush color, extreme detail, and noble subject matter – in this case, a gentleman bidding a fond farewell to an elegant lady. This large Mixed-Media tableau is the perfect Transitional Estates and the Best Interior Designers in Birmingham, Alabama.
