Intussen, in het leven van Frederic, Lord Leighton
Het hele leven1848
Leaves revolutionary Frankfurt for Paris
Two years after taking up his studies in Frankfurt, Leighton left the city because of the revolutionary unrest and moved to Paris.
1850
Returns to Frankfurt and completes his studies
In 1850 Leighton and his family were back in Frankfurt, where he completed his studies and began his first large-scale pictures, on scenes from the life of the 13th-century Italian painter Cimabue. His teachers on the Continent were Eduard von Steinle and then Giovanni Costa.
November 1852
His first journey on his own, to Rome
To immerse himself in the art of the great Italian painters, in 1852 Leighton made his first journey on his own and by November was in Rome, where the opera singer Adelaide Sartoris introduced him to society. In her salon he met William Thackeray and became close friends with the Brownings, as well as with Jean-Léon Gérôme and William Bouguereau.
