EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Lucilia, 1917" an exquisite oil on canvas painting by the renowned artist John William Godward. Measuring at 49.5x49.5 cm, this artwork is part of a private collection and beautifully captures the essence of ancient Rome. The subject of this mesmerizing portrait is believed to be Lucilia, possibly the wife of the Roman philosopher Lucretius. With her serene expression and classical features, she embodies timeless beauty and grace. The circular composition adds a sense of harmony and balance to the piece, while also evoking a neo-classical aesthetic. Godward's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, as he skillfully renders Lucilia's delicate features and flowing garments. The soft lighting further enhances her ethereal presence, giving her an almost otherworldly aura. As we gaze upon this remarkable painting captured by Bridgeman Images' expert photographers at eChristies Images, we are transported back in time to ancient Rome. This roundel-shaped masterpiece not only serves as a testament to Godward's artistic prowess but also pays homage to classical artistry that continues to inspire generations. With its timeless appeal and historical significance, "Lucilia" remains an iconic example of classical portraiture within the realm of fine art.
