Frederic Lord Leighton - two pictures




[The Knucklebone Player]
35 x 20"
exhibited RA 1867

[Rustic Music]
24 x 20"
One of eight pictures submitted to the RA. The model was a young friend of Leigton's - John Hanson Walker who lived in Bath. This picture was rejected by the RA much to Leighton's dismay.
