his early works depicted the history of the Merovingian dynasty, rulers of Gaul
from the 6th to 8th centuries AD. However, having visited the International
Exhibition in London in 1862, he became inspired by the Elgin Marbles and
Egyptian artefacts in the British Museum, leading him to turn increasingly to
Egyptian themes in his work. In 1863 Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema married a French woman, Marie Pauline Gressin de Boisgirard, and they honeymooned in Italy where he encountered the newly-excavated ruins of Pompeii. So fascinated was Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema by the Roman remains with their preponderance of marble that, within a few years, ancient Roman subject matter came to the fore in his work. The Tademas soon moved to Paris where Lourens entered into a long-term contract with the well-known art dealer Ernest Gambart, an influential man with connections throughout Europe. Within a short time he transported his studio to Brussels. |

However, in the 1860's, tragedy struck: his only son dying of smallpox in 1865
and his wife died in 1869, leaving him to care for his two daughters Anna and
Laurence. But fortune in his career followed swiftly and, in that year, two of
his paintings - A Roman
Art Lover and Phyrric Dance - were exhibited
at the Royal Academy in London. The latter
work prompted the famous critic and writer
John Ruskin to comment that: " ... the general effect was exactly like a microscopic view of a small detachment of black-beetles in search of a dead rat." Fortunately, Sir Lawrence Alma Tadema was one of very few adverse criticisms and, so well were his paintings received overall that, upon visiting England the same year to see a doctor, and in part due to the possible impending Prussian invasion of France, he moved his home to London in 1870. The following year he married his seventeen-year-old pupil, Laura Epps, a doctor's daughter and member of a then well-known family of cocoa manufacturers. In 1873 he became a naturalized British citizen, at the same time consciously joining he middle name, Alma, to his surname. Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema didn't actually hyphenate it himself, but it was done by others and he has since become the convention. It also had the fortuitous 'side-effect' of elevating his name to a top position in alphabetical catalogues! Soon after remarrying, they moved from a rented home in Camden Square to Townshend House, near Regent's Park. Elegant and cosmopolitan in decor, their home soon became a popular venue for gatherings of fellow artists. Fame and prosperity soon followed and in 1876 Sir Lawrence Alma Tadema became an Associate of the Royal Academy, being elected to a full Royal Academician in 1879. The Grosvenor Gallery staged an exhibition of 287 of his paintings in 1882 - Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema had become one of the most famous painters in Britain. 'Building' on this success, he developed plans for a more spectacular home - the building for which Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema found in Grove End Road, St John's Wood. In fact it was the former home of James Tissot which had been abandoned by the artist in 1882 after the death of his mistress, Kathleen Newton. It was then fairly modest but had a number of classical features which appealed to him (such as the famous colonnade beside a garden pond, which featured in several of Tissot's canvases - see our reproduction TIJ001). However Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema made it into almost a palace, designing every detail himself - from the weather vane in the form of an artist's palette and the doorway modeled on one from Pompeii, to the rainspouts in the form of lions' heads. The hall was lined with panels painted by fellow artists and the enormous galleried and marble-floored studio was crowned with a polished aluminum dome - the brightness of the light it reflected noticeably affected his paintings from then on. Both of his London homes were famous for their extravagant and well-attended parties, often in fancy dress - the artist himlself having a predilection for dressing as Nero - and where music was always a feature. Distinguished guests included personalities such as Tchaikovsky and Enrico Caruso. Alma-Tadema received awards and honors from around the world, although notably not from his own country of birth - including a knighthood from Britain in 1899 followed by the prestigious Order of Merit in 1905. his clients included members of the British Royal family and the Russian Imperial Family - Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema was in fact a noted Society portraitist. Indeed approximately 60 of his 400 plus paintings are commissioned portraits of sitters ranging from the British Prime Minister Arthur Balfour to the Polish pianist and Prime Minister Ligancy Paderewski. his wife, Lady Laura Alma-Tadema, died in 1909 and was buried at Kensal Green cemetary, alongside whom Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema had reserved a plot for himself. However, this was not to be, since, by the time of hos own death in 1912 at the German spa of Wiesbaden, he was so famous an artist that the British 'establishment' saw fit for him to be buried in St Paul's Cathedral. Soon afterwards, his famous house and contents were sold - the house being converted into apartments, leaving few of the the splended architectural details. [Ref: "Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema" by Russell Ash, 1989, Pavilion Books] Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, the painter of "Victorians in togas", was one of the most successful artists of the XIX century. he was internationally famous and so immensely popular that scarcely a middle-class Victorian drawing room was without at least one print of Alma-Tadema's painting. Yet a few years after his death he was all but forgotten.- Sir Lawrence Alma-Tademaold oil painting artist- Sir Lawrence Alma-Tademaoil painting artist, old oil painting Sir Lawrence Alma-Tademaby artist oil paintings, Biography Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, old oil paintings artists. Laurens (later he changed to the more English Lawrence) Tadema was born on 8 January 1836, in the small village of Dronrijp, which lies about 3 miles to the west of Leeuwarden, Holland. he was the sixth child of Pieter Jiltes Tadema, a notary. It is unclear when and why Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema affixed the name Alma to his last name, probably it was the name of his godfather. his parents wanted him to become a lawyer and Laurens was enrolled at the gymnasium of Leeuwarden. Although Laurens was a good student, he always wanted to be an artist and, with great enthusiasm he tried to pursue both courses. This caused a significant decline of his health that his doctors even predicted he would die shortly. his mother decided to allow him to spend his remaining days doing what he enjoyed most, to paint. But happily after that he recovered completely. This marked the beginning of a new period of his life. In 1851, Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema went to Antwerp to study in the Antwerp Academy, where he was taught first by Gustave Wappers and then by Nicaise de Keyser. he left the Academy in 1856 and continued to study art and also took up the history of Germany, early France and Belgium under the guidance of Louis de Taye, the Professor of Archaeology at the Academy of Antwerp. Faust and Marguerite (1857) was painted as a result of these studies. In 1859 Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema became a pupil of Henrik Leys, joining his studio in Antwerp. In 1861, Tadema's picture The Education of the Children of Clovis (1868) was exhibited and became a success. In 1862, Alma-Tadema left Leys's studio and started his own career. The period 1862-1870 is called his Continental period, Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema established himself as a significant contemporary European artist. his main works were of classical genre, dedicated to Ancient Egypt: An Egyptian Widow (1872) and Greek and Roman history: A Roman Family (1868), An Audience at Agrippa's (1876). In 1870, Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema moved to England, where he was to spend the rest of his life. he became one of the most famous and highly paid artists of his time, acknowledged and rewarded by the fellow artists as well as by the governments of the European countries. In 1879, Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema was elected as a full member of the Royal Academy of Art and in 1899 was knighted by Queen Victoria. Among his most famous works are An Apodyterium (1886), Spring (1894), The Coliseum (1896), The Baths of Caracalla (1899), Silver Favourites (1903), The Finding of Moses (1904), A Favourite Custom (1909). AlmaTadema died in 1912. |
