Extractions: John William Godward was one of the followers of Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema's "Marble School," so called for the classical themes depicted in their paintings and sculpture. Unfortunately, Godward reached his peak at a time when neo-classical themes were in decline, and despite his obvious skill and an exhibition at the Royal Academy in 1887, he never quite achieved the popularity or fame of his predecessors. Nor was Godward accepted or encouraged by his own family. They thoroughly disapproved of his ambition to become an artist, and were even more appalled when he moved to Italy with one of his models, an Italian girl by the name of "Dolcissima." Little more is known of her than her name, though her likeness can be found frequently in Godward's work: a sloe-eyed woman with thick black hair and a voluptuous figure. By the time he returned to England in 1919, the modernist era was in full swing, and Godward found himself unable to sell his paintings and the subject of mockery by critics. He took his life in 1922 by sticking his head in a gas oven, and reputedly left a note saying that "the world was not big enough" for him and a Picasso. His family, ashamed of his suicide, his sojourn in Italy, and his work in general, destroyed most of his papers and photographs, enough so that no likenesses of him survive.

Extractions: Art Gallery About John William Godward G odward, John William (1861 - 1922), was one of the best of the followers of Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema . (Alma-Tadema's followers are now known as 'The Marble School'). Godward devoted his whole life to painting girls in classical robes, usually posing decoratively on a marble terrace. He was among the brightest stars of the late Graeco-Roman painters, during classicism's twilight and final extinguishing. Some believe he equaled Tadema in the depiction of marble and flowers and Leighton in the depiction of drapery. Typically, his paintings are without any story, focused on a single girl, large on the canvas, semi-draped or wearing translucent garments, giving a sensuality somewhat diminished by the careful, classical composition of the rest of the picture. Often the model is recognizable as his Italian girl, with black hair parted in the middle, very large eyes, thick eyebrows and a rounded face. However, other models also appear frequently in his pictures, including one looking much like Alma Tadema's wife or daughters. He fell in love with one of his models - an Italian girl - and when he 'ran off to Italy with her' it was the last straw, his figure being cut out from the family portraits. Godward's subjects are typically beautiful girls in classical robes on marble terraces.
