The Leighton House Museum is the spectacular former home and studio of eminent Victorian artist and former President of the Royal Academy, Frederic Lord Leighton (1830 – 1896). It is one of the most remarkable buildings of the nineteenth century, containing a fascinating collection of paintings and sculpture by Leighton and his contemporaries.
From modest beginnings it grew into a ‘private palace of art’ featuring the extraordinary Arab Hall with its golden dome, intricate mosaics and walls lined with beautiful Islamic tiles.
