Frederic Leighton, (1830-1896) - Flaming June (1895)

Author: Frederic Leighton, (1830-1896) Title: Flaming June (1895) Size: 70 x 70 cm Copyright: F. Leighton - Fleming June - 70731 - Firenze - Printed in Italy. Offset print on heavyweight 250g premium paper. Displays a vivid and sharp image quality. New to frame. A must have print. Shipping in a rigid tube via certified express mail. It is possible to collect more than one object, from the same auction, in the same shipment. The painting has an interesting history. It was one of the several ones Leighton submitted for the Royal Academy exhibition in the year before his death. Before the official exhibition, he organized a small viewing of the paintings in his studio, attended by members of the royal family. After being on loan to the Ashmolean in Oxford in the early 1900s, the painting vanished for decades, only to be rediscovered in the early 1960s, boxed in over a chimney in a house in Battersea. Andrew Lloyd Webber saw it soon after in a shop on Kings Road, but his grandmother refused to lend him £50 to buy it, famously saying: “I will not have Victorian junk in my flat.” It was auctioned shortly after but failed to achieve the low reserve price. After the auction, it was quickly purchased by Museo de Arte de Ponce in Ponce, Puerto Rico, its current residence. In 2016, Leighton House Museum hosted an exhibition recreating Leighton’s final submission to the Royal Academy exhibition, bringing almost all of the paintings together into the studio where they were created. Flaming June was definitely the star of the show, returning to its original home for the first time since 1895 Tags: nouveau, oriental, asiatico, regalo, cojines, ideas, cama, sofa, silla, mantel, tapiz, elegancia, country, brocante, bronce, oro, raro, marfil, plata, ct, quilates, deco, cortinas, cojín, chic, leopardo, elefante, mono, tkanina, kangas, tissu, kangast, frey, panini, pokemon, star wars, marilyn monroe, diseño de interiores, antigüedad, pop, antiguo, cristal, exclusivo, eclectico, etching, lithograph, numerado, decoracion, poster, reloj, ormolu, espejo, retro, vintage, coleccionista, madera, vidrio, luxury, malaquita, bauhaus, piedra, rubí, rojo rabino, azul, diamante, brillante, anillo, collar, arete, bronce, louis, rolex, terciopelo, jean-michel basquiat, pablo picasso, david hockney, roy lichtenstein, joan miro, banksy, pierre soulages, karl lagasse, mel ramos, andy warhol, toulouse lautrec, gustav klimt, henri matisse, damien hirst, marc chagall, jeff koons, keith haring, matt groening, gerhard richter, yayoi kusama, mark rothko, takashi murakami, armando testa, bernard villemot, georges braque, juan garcia ripolles, rene magritte, laurence jenk, richard orlinski, ommo wille, james rizzi, milo manara, wayne thiebaud, leonetto cappiello, kandinsky, salvador dalí, giovanni buffa, aldo tura, wendell castle, eames, ponti, florence knoll, minimalista, coa, artificial, token, certificate, crypto, limitado, enmarcado, industrial, corbusier, breuer, moda, lino, lujo, sex, nude, erotic, sea, mont blanc, porche, nintendo, apple, the beatles, rolling stones, carolina herrera, gucci, prada, calvin klein, christian dior, chanel, hermes, louis vuitton, loewe, artemide, kartell, lego, omega, cartier, alessi, the simpsons, playmobil, messi, disney, drawing, cel, barbie, kaws, pendientes, reloj, estatua, escultura, bonsai, antiguedades, patchwork, tela, manga.
