He was initially trained by his father, before entering the Royal Academy Schools in 1870. Among the visiting lecturers who trained him, were the famous senior academicians Leighton (1830-1896) and Millais (1829-1896). Dicksee was a star student, with an interest in the Pre-Raphaelites, earning many distinctions and medals. Like many other artists of the day his early career was largely spent in book illustration, as well as some stained glass window design. He started exhibiting at the RA in the mid 1870's, and also exhibited at the Grosvenor Gallery, though his real base was always the Academy. Dicksee made his reputation with Harmony, exhibited at the Academy in 1877, and bought by the Chantry Bequest.
