Albert Durer Lucas, the son of sculptor Richard Cockle Lucas, exhibited mainly in London between 1859-78 with the Royal Institute and the Society of British Artists. He painted small, detailed studies of flowers and foliage, sometimes with butterflies and other insects. In 1910 he caused a sensation by revealing that his father was the real author of a bust of Flora which had recently been bought by the Berlin Museum as a Leonardo.
