Figurative Art

      Leighton had visited Damascus in 1873, and the fabrics and the architectural setting in Music Lesson probably derive from that trip. The stringed instrument is a Turkish ‘saz’. The two girls , depicted in Music Lesson are however European, and the younger one is Connie Gilchrist (1865-1946), a celebrated child dancer and pantomime artiste noted for her beautiful hair, who also modelled for Whistler and Frank Holl among other painters. Lewis Carroll took her to see the Royal Academy exhibition in 1877, and recorded in his diary that she had enjoyed seeing herself in Leighton’s pictures. Later she became a popular actress, but gave up the stage in 1892 when she married the Earl of Orkney.

Beautiful painting! Looks even better in person than it does in the photos. Every person who comes to our house admires the piece! Highly recommended.

I ordered three paintings and they arrived sooner than expected. They're so so gorgeous. Two are hung in my living room and one in my dining room and I literally have to walk into those rooms throughout the day to look at the paintings. After posting pictures of my paintings on my Facebook page, many of my friends were curious about three of them went ahead and ordered some. Breathtaking. Thank you!
