Born Lourens Tadema (Alma being Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema’s middle name)
in Dronryp, Friesland, to Pieter Tadema, a notary, and Sir Lawrence
Alma-Tadema’s second wife Hinke Brouwer - from an early age he showed
some painteric ability and the beginnings of Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema’s
highly methodical and exacting nature as demonstrated in Sir Lawrence
Alma-Tadema’s paintings to follow. He only adopted the now familiar form
of Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema’s name after moving to London in 1870.

Wiesbaden. Entre sus primeros cuadros, en su mayoría descriptivos de la
vida de los francos, figuran como más importantes: Clotilde en la tumba
de sus nietos (1858) y La educación de los hijos de Clodoveo (1861). En
1863 abordó temas egipcios y, pocos años más tarde, temas griegos y
romanos. En 1873 se hizo súbdito británico y logró ser elegido miembro
de la Real Academia (1879). Su obra se caracteriza por el profundo
conocimiento que revela de la arqueología y la exacta reproducción de
mármoles y bronces.
