Frederic Leighton Flaming June Canvas Painting

This beautiful woman, fast asleep in the brilliant light of a summer afternoon, epitomizes both artist Lord Frederic Leighton's style and his reputation as the dominant figure in Victorian art. Considered to be Leighton's magnum opus, Flaming June is a sumptuous work rendered in luxuriant color and meticulous detail. The Oleander branch in the top right, symbolizes the fragile link between sleep and death. Our 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 our imported, antique gold-toned, delicately sculpted 4" wide designer resin frame with a leaf motif.
