Jefferson exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1853-1860. In 1853 he won the Art Union prize for the best plaster model in low relief. The Art Journal in 1853 described the relief: 'It is a processional composition, full of figures of every degree, from the full round to the lowest relief. It is throughout extremely spirited and extremely successful in national characteristic'.
