He received artistic training in London and Florence and also spent time four years in Paris. He returned to London in 1860 and began associating with the Pre-Raphaelites. He became an associate at the Royal Academy in 1864 and then its President in 1878. Leighton worked in both sculpture and painting; his work frequently depicted biblical, classical, and historical subjects. He was knighted in 1878 and was the first artist to be granted a peerage in 1896, becoming Frederic, Lord Leighton, Baron of Stretton. He passed away on January 24, 1896.
