Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836-1912) was one of the most refined and unusual painters of the Victorian era. Born in the Netherlands, he moved to London in 1870, where he made his name with works depicting the luxury and decadence of the Roman Empire, with languid figures lounging in sumptuous marble settings or against a backdrop of azure Mediterranean sea and sky.

This book presents a captivating and often amusing portrait of this colourful character who succeeded in imposing his art brilliantly on the London artistic and cultural elite.
