Om maleriet

The characters are from Shakespeare's play A Winter's Tale. They are the beautiful shepherdess Perdita (really the daughter of King Leontes) with Florizel (really the son of King Polixines) and Dorcas, another shepherdess. On the right, and also in disguise, are King Polixines and Camillo, a Sicilian nobleman.

Leslie was brought up in the United States, but worked in London. He was a friend and biographer of the landscape painter John Constable.
