"Elijah in the Wilderness" is a notable painting by Lord Frederick Leighton, a prominent British painter and sculptor of the 19th century. Created in 1877-1878, this artwork is a representation of the biblical prophet Elijah, as described in the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament. The painting is part of Leighton's exploration of classical and biblical themes, which were common subjects in the Victorian era, reflecting the period's interest in history, religion, and academic art traditions.

The painting depicts the moment from the Book of Kings where Elijah, having fled the wrath of Queen Jezebel, is exhausted and lies in the wilderness under a juniper tree. An angel is shown touching Elijah, as he is about to be miraculously provided with food and water, emphasizing the divine intervention and care for the prophet during his time of need. The work is characterized by Leighton's meticulous attention to detail, harmonious composition, and the use of rich, vibrant colors that create a dramatic yet serene atmosphere.

Leighton's portrayal of Elijah is a testament to his mastery of the human form and his ability to convey emotional depth and spiritual intensity. The painting is a fine example of the academic style that dominated British art during the mid to late 19th century, showcasing Leighton's skill in blending realism with idealism.

"Elijah in the Wilderness" is part of the collection of the Manchester Art Gallery in Manchester, England. The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its reflection of the Victorian era's cultural and religious values. It continues to be studied and admired for its aesthetic qualities and its place within the broader context of Lord Frederick Leighton's oeuvre and the history of British art.
