Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836-1912), Dutch-born British painter, 1881
Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836-1912), Dutch-born British painter, 1881. Alma-Tadema moved to London in 1870. He had exhibited two paintings at the Royal Academy the previous year, which had been very well-received. He became a Royal Academician in 1879, and by the 1880s he was one of the most popular and famous artists in Britain, with clients including members of the British and Russian royal families. He specialised in idyllic Classical scenes. Alma-Tadema received a knighthood in 1899, and was held in such regard by the establishment that, when he died in 1912, he was buried in St Pauls Cathedral

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the renowned artist Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, a Dutch-born British painter, in 1881. Having moved to London in 1870, Alma-Tadema quickly gained recognition for his exceptional talent. His two paintings exhibited at the Royal Academy in the previous year were met with great acclaim, propelling him into fame and popularity. By the 1880s, he had become one of Britain's most sought-after artists, attracting clients from both British and Russian royal families. Specializing in idyllic Classical scenes, Alma-Tadema's work transported viewers to a world of beauty and tranquility. His dedication to his craft earned him numerous accolades throughout his career. In 1899, he was knighted for his contributions to artistry. The esteem held by the establishment towards Alma-Tadema was evident even after his passing in 1912 when he was laid to rest in St Paul's Cathedral—a testament to his significant impact on British art. In this portrait captured by an unknown creator using woodburytype technique, we see Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema portrayed with distinction. His bearded visage exudes wisdom and creativity as he gazes off into the distance. This monochrome image offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable artist who left an indelible mark on nineteenth-century art history.
