Tadema Road was named after Lawrence Alma-Tadema

Tadema Road has Dutch and classical elements and was named after Lawrence Alma-Tadema, a Dutch artist who enjoyed great frame during the mid to late 1870s, when the houses were constructed.

Born on 8 January 1836 in Holland, Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema came to London in 1870 and spent the rest of his life living there. He became one of the most famous and highly paid artists of his time, with his incredibly detailed reconstruction paintings of ancient Rome.

One of his most famous paintings is The Roses of Heliogabalus (1888). He died in Wiesbaden, Germany on 28 June 1912 at the age of seventy-six.

He is buried in St. Paul’s Cathedral in London. His name lives on in two streets that are named after him, the nearby Alma Terrace and Tadema Road, Chelsea.
