John William Godward is an important Pre-Raphaelite / Neo-Classicist painter, known for his striking portraits of beautiful woman in classical settings, with technically meticulous renderings of architecture and texture – flesh, diaphenous fabric, marble, animal skin.
“He was the best of the last great European painters to straight-forwardly embrace classical Greece and Rome in their art. Herein lies his significance to art history. With him and his colleagues, we see the nightfall of five hundred years of Classical subject painting in Western art.” – excerpt from “John William Godward, The Eclipse of Classicism” (Dr. Vern Grosvenor Swanson; 1997)
