In 1871, at the height of her fame, Ouida swapped the Langham for a sprawling villa in Florence; it was falling down around her but it had belonged to one of the Medici. A visiting social columnist described her ‘truly picturesque’ workroom: ‘Its walls are painted with exquisite old Italian frescoes, and inlaid tables laden with pots of flowers (lilies and hyacinths abounding) line the walls’. The most colourful anecdote concerned
