EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken by Bedford Lemere in 1895, offers a rare glimpse into the creative heart of Lord Frederic Leighton's studio at 12 Holland Park Road, London. With the sun casting a warm, golden light through the large bay windows, the room is filled with an air of artistic inspiration and accomplishment. Leighton (1830-1896), a prominent figure in Victorian art, was loosely associated with the Pre-Raphaelite movement, but his unique style and mastery of technique set him apart from his contemporaries. The studio, which served as both his residence and workspace, was a testament to his artistic vision and dedication. The photograph captures several recently completed works that would come to define Leighton's legacy. Among them, the ethereal figure of "Flaming June" lies on a daybed, her pale skin glowing in the soft light. Nearby, "The Maid with the Golden Hair" stands proudly, her long, golden tresses cascading down her back. These works, along with others, would cement Leighton's reputation as a leading figure in the art world. The studio's decor reflects the eclectic tastes of the time, with Greek and Roman sculptures, ornate textiles, and intricate architectural details adorning the space. The atmosphere is one of quiet contemplation and creativity, where Leighton could bring his artistic visions to life. This photograph, preserved by Historic England, provides a fascinating window into the world of Lord Frederic Leighton and the artistic process of one of the most influential artists of the Victorian era.
