"Lady Godiva, 1856" is a notable work of art by the English artist Alfred Woolmer (1805–1892). The painting is a representation of the legendary tale of Lady Godiva, an 11th-century noblewoman who, according to folklore, rode naked through the streets of Coventry to protest against the oppressive taxation imposed by her husband, Leofric, Earl of Mercia. Woolmer's depiction of Lady Godiva is a significant example of the Victorian fascination with medievalism and the romanticized past, as well as the era's complex attitudes towards female nudity and public decency.

In the painting, Lady Godiva is portrayed as a virtuous and courageous figure, her nudity symbolizing purity and innocence rather than eroticism. Woolmer's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to detail in the depiction of the architectural elements and the horse, contribute to the overall dramatic effect of the painting. The work is a testament to Woolmer's skill as a painter and his ability to convey narrative and emotion through his art.

"Lady Godiva, 1856" is part of a long tradition of artistic interpretations of the Lady Godiva legend, reflecting its enduring appeal and cultural significance. The painting is a valuable resource for understanding the ways in which Victorian artists engaged with historical and mythological themes, and it continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic and historical value.
