More about this artwork

Captured in all the lush vibrancy of the turn-of-the-century Neoclassicism, "Ionian Dancing Girl" (1902) by John William Godward is a stunning representation of beauty and serene grace. This piece features a young woman adorned in classical Ionian attire, her costume a delicate fusion of rich golden yellows and subtle lilac hues, which accentuate her gentle yet poignant poise.She is seated against a classical marble balustrade, which overlooks a tranquil sea, hinting at a picturesque Grecian landscape. Her attire, meticulously rendered, showcases Godward’s attention to detail and mastery in depicting textures, from the soft flow of the fabric to the intricate floral wreath that crowns her head.Beside her, an exquisitely painted tiger skin adds a touch of exotic luxury, bringing a dynamic contrast to the scene. The tranquility of her expression and the idyllic setting suggest a moment of peaceful reflection, perhaps after a joyful dance. Godward’s skill in color and form brings this Ionian maiden’s world to life, creating a window into a scene of classical charm and timeless elegance.

John William Godward was an English painter from the end of the Neo-Classicist era. He was a protégé of Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, but his style of painting fell out of favor with the rise of modern art.

Godward was born in 1861 and lived in Wilton Grove, Wimbledon. He was born to Sarah Eboral and John Godward (an investment clerk at the Law Life Assurance Society, London).
