EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating painting by the talented artist John William Godward. This exquisite piece of art can be found in the esteemed collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles. The painting transports us to England during the Belle Époque, capturing an enchanting moment between two lovers. The couple's tenderness and affection are beautifully portrayed as they embrace each other with great passion. Godward's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, particularly in his depiction of their clothing made from luxurious leopard fur skins. This choice adds an element of allure and opulence to the scene, reflecting the fashion trends of Victorian era England. The composition exudes a sense of poetic beauty, drawing inspiration from mythology, allegory, and literature prevalent during that time period. It is through this amalgamation that Godward creates a timeless masterpiece. As we gaze upon "Mischief and Repose" we are reminded of the skillful craftsmanship associated with academic art and its ability to transport viewers into another world entirely. This print serves as a window into history—an opportunity for us to appreciate not only Godward's talent but also gain insight into Victorian society's fascination with romance and elegance.
