Stephen Jones, former curator at Leighton House Museum, first suggested that this drawing may be a study for the painting 'Wedded' (c.1881-82, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney). The figure at the bottom of the sheet is also reminiscent of the painting 'Clytemnestra' (c.1874, Leighton House Museum).
Page from a sketchbook. Thumbnail studies of ideas for compositions, possibly for 'Wedded' (c.1881-82, Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney), and 'Clytemnestra' (c.1874, Leighton House Museum).
