More about this artwork

John William Godward's painting "Eurypyle" from 1920 is a striking example of his fascination with Neoclassicism, a style that emphasized classical beauty and idyllic settings. In this captivating piece, the focus is on a dignified woman dressed in vibrant, flowing robes that evoke the fashions of ancient times. Her attire, a combination of deep reds and purples, coupled with a distinctive green sash, symbolizes both royalty and grace.The woman's pose is both relaxed and assertive, with one hand resting nonchalantly on her hip and the other gently holding a fan adorned with peacock feathers, a symbol of vanity and beauty in many cultures. Her serene expression and direct gaze add to her enigmatic presence, inviting viewers to delve into her story.The backdrop, a subtle marble texture, complements her elegant figure and the complexity of her attire without overwhelming the viewer. The careful attention to detail in her jewelry and the harmonious use of color exemplify Godward's mastery in bringing classical themes to life with a romantic yet realistic touch.

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).
