"Reverie" is a painting by the English artist John William Godward (1861–1922), who was a prominent figure in the Neo-Classical movement. Known for his meticulous attention to detail and his fascination with the aesthetics of the ancient world, Godward's works often feature languid women in classical settings, embodying an idealized vision of beauty and repose.

"Reverie," like many of Godward's paintings, depicts a solitary female figure, draped in flowing classical garments, lost in thought. The term 'reverie' suggests a state of being pleasantly lost in one's thoughts; a daydream. Godward's subject is typically set against a backdrop of marble structures or Mediterranean landscapes, which serve to enhance the timeless quality of the scene. The painting is characterized by its rich color palette, the fine rendering of textures such as marble and fabric, and the serene ambiance that is a hallmark of Godward's style.

While the exact date of creation for "Reverie" is not specified, Godward's career spanned the late Victorian period into the early 20th century, a time when the classical revival was at its peak in British art. His works were influenced by the likes of Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, with whom Godward shared a passion for the depiction of the luxury and decadence of the Roman Empire.

"Reverie" exemplifies Godward's dedication to classical themes and his skill in portraying the female form with elegance and sensitivity. The painting's subject, absorbed in her own world, invites the viewer to contemplate the inner thoughts and emotions that might be stirring beneath her calm exterior. Godward's meticulous technique and his ability to evoke a sense of tranquility and introspection through his art have contributed to his enduring legacy among the Neo-Classical artists of his time.

As an artist, Godward's reputation suffered a decline after his death, particularly with the rise of Modernism, which favored abstraction and avant-garde styles over the representational and academic. However, in recent years, there has been a renewed interest in his work, and "Reverie" remains a testament to Godward's artistic achievements and his contribution to the Neo-Classical tradition.
