About the work
Frederic Leighton was one of the most celebrated draughtsmen of the Victorian era. As a young man he was influenced by John Ruskin’s advice to ‘go to Nature in all singleness of heart… rejecting nothing and selecting nothing’. Leighton trained in Frankfurt under Eduard von Steinle, a member of the ‘Nazarene’ group of artists which rejected conventional academic art as superficial. Steinle taught Leighton the importance of crisp outline.
