About this work
Dining room of Leighton House, Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, west London, England. The art museum and historic house is located in the Holland Park area and was the London home of painter Frederic Leighton, 1st Baron Leighton (1830–1896), who commissioned the architect and designer George Aitchison to build him a combined home and studio. The resulting building, noted for its elaborate Orientalist and aesthetic interiors, has been open to the public since 1929. The museum was awarded the European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage / Europa Nostra Award in 2012. The pottery collection from around the world in the dining room is one of the highlights of the museum.
