Alma
Tadema painted pictures without deep-meaning or significance,
essentially his work was decorative. His painting of metal
objects was brilliant, but what really made him as a successful
artist was his ability to paint marble, so popular in
those times of nostalgia for ancient civilisations. His
work tended to be frozen moments in time, and to be photographic
in nature, rather like that of Tissot.
He was also a distinguished and accomplished portrait
painter. In truth Alma Tadema was a man of his time, and
a highly successful entrepreneur-he gave the prosperous
self-made picture buyers what they wanted. Alma Tadema
has left behind a large number of beautiful decorative
pictures.
