" Leila (Passion), 1892 " by Frank Dicksee

The ravishing Leila reclines in the luxurious trappings of an elegantly appointed harem, the defining symbol of the exotic Orient. Gently filtered sunlight kisses her flawless skin from cheek to toe, while leopard pelts adorn cushions beckoning with untold delights. Considered a Pre-Raphaelite painter in style and technique, Dicksee painted elegant society portraits as well as biblical, literary and historical figures. He served as leader of the Royal Academy and was knighted in 1925. The authentic stretched canvas replica captures the original painting's texture, depth of color, and even its brushstrokes, which are applied by hand. It is surrounded by an imported, antique gold-toned, delicately sculpted 4" wide designer resin frame with a leaf motif. Proudly printed and framed in the USA using imported molding.
