Description

In this romantic image, love is equated with art. In its evocation of the past and its precise, controlled style, the painting epitomizes the officially sanctioned academic practice of the late 19th century. Leighton, elected president of the Royal Academy in London in 1879, spent many years studying in Germany, France, and Italy. The composition and glowing color of Painter’s Honeymoon reflect the influence of 16th‑century Venetian painters, such as Giorgione and Titian.

This gorgeous hand painted museum quality reproduction of that painting has been mesmerizingly reimagined in a cooler palette and warmfully framed in a classic gold-wood frame.
