A young servant holds a mirror so the exquisitely beautiful maiden may see as she wraps her lavish silken headdress to best effect. Painted after the artist's visit to Damascus in 1873, the work combines elements of rich Orientalism with a thoroughly western model, Dorothy Dene. The acknowledged leader of the Victorian classical school of painting, Leighton served as President of the Royal Academy and was made a full baron, the only English artist ever to receive this honor. The authentic stretched canvas replica painting captures the original work's texture, depth of color, and even its subtle brushstrokes, which are applied by hand exclusively for Design Toscano. Our replica European style, bright gold-toned, ribbed frame is cast in quality designer resin with an acanthus leaf and floret border that draws the eye toward the beautiful image. Small 14"Wx17"H.
