Offering a timely reexamination of the late Victorian period's most institutionally powerful artist, Keren Rosa Hammerschlag undertakes close readings of Frederic Lord Leighton's paintings, sculptures, frescos and drawings, and situates them in the context of contemporaneous debates about death and resurrection in theology, archaeology and medicine. The author reconfigures what it meant to be not just a late-Victorian neoclassicist and royal academician, but President of the Victorian Royal Academy.
