Sir George Frampton Lamia (1899-1900) Ivory, bronze, opals, glass (610 X 553 X 254 mm) Given by Meredith Frampton, R.A., 1938 and Lady Frampton, 1938

Source:

With its use of polychromatic materials and melancholic subject matter of the femme fatale, Lamia epitomises the ideals of the late 19th century Symbolist movement. Frampton’s figure is not the sorceress of classical tradition but the Lamia of John Keats’s eponymous poem (1819).  Keats’s Lamia is a beautiful serpent-like creature who assumes female form to win the love of the mortal Lycius. When her true nature is exposed at their wedding, she vanishes and her husband dies.

CORSET-BODICE AND SKIRT Mid-17th Century MAGYAR NEMZETI MÚZEUM (Hungarian National Museum) Budapest, Hungary

Earlier researches attributed the costume to Pál Esterházy’s (1635–1713) first wife Orsolya Esterházy (1641–1682) and later to his second wife Éva Thököly (1659–1716). The original owner can no longer be traced but the cut and the embroidery ascertain that either could have worn it at her wedding. The suite was restored by Mrs Sándor Borsi between 1969 and 1971.
