from
Wikipedia
With his small daughters and sister Artje, Alma-Tadema arrived in London at the beginning of September 1870.
The painter wasted no time in contacting Laura, and it was arranged that he would give her painting lessons.
As he was then thirty-four and Laura was now only eighteen, her father was initially opposed to the idea.
Laura, under her married name, also won a high reputation as an artist, and appears in numerous of Alma-Tadema's canvases after their marriage ( The Women of Amphissa ( 1887 ) being a notable example ).
This second marriage was enduring and happy, though childless, and Laura became stepmother to Anna and Laurence.
