Her dark, flowing hair is styled up, suggesting the fashion of the period, and is complemented by the soft shadows that play across her features. Dora’s attire, a green dress with detailed lace at the collar, enhances the sense of gentle refinement that is conveyed through the painting.Godward’s fine brushwork can be appreciated in the realistic rendering of textures, from the lace’s intricate pattern to the subtle interplay of light on the woman’s skin. The choice of a muted palette emphasizes the timelessness and universal qualities of feminine elegance and introspectiveness."Dora 1887" is a testament to Godward’s mastery in portraying the delicate nuances of human expressions and the richness of fabric, making it a captivating visual treat for all viewers, and a celebrated piece in the annals of portrait painting.

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).
