Research - Edmund Leighton - Painter



Nothing inspires a writer more than a beautiful painting on a favorite subject - knights. This delightful scene entitled "The Accolade" was painted by English artist Edmund Leighton (1853-1922), who specialized in Medeival period pieces. He trained at the Royal Academy Schools where his paintings were also exhibited.
