Perilla, 1911
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by the renowned artist John William Godward. This exquisite portrait showcases his mastery in capturing the beauty and grace of women from ancient Greek mythology. The subject, with her delicate features and serene expression, transports us to a bygone era. Godward's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, particularly in the intricate hairstyle known as the Grecian hairdo. The elaborate arrangement of curls and braids adorning her head adds an air of sophistication and elegance to this enchanting figure. The profile view chosen by the artist allows us to appreciate Perilla's classical facial structure - high cheekbones, straight nose, and softly curved lips. Her eyes gaze into the distance with a hint of melancholy or perhaps contemplation. Measuring 51x40 cm, this intimate artwork invites viewers to immerse themselves in its timeless charm. It resides within a private collection but has been made accessible through eChristies Images for all art enthusiasts to admire. Bridgeman Images ensures that this remarkable piece remains available for public appreciation while respecting copyright laws. As we delve into "Perilla" we are reminded of Godward's ability to transport us back in time through his skillful portrayal of female beauty inspired by ancient Greece.
