“Study of Campaspe” is an oil painting by the late Victorian Neo-Classicist artist John William Godward. The date of its creation remains unknown. The painting exhibits Godward's much-admired style of depicting beautiful young women placed in luxurious, marble-rich settings, reminiscent of the classical era.

Despite its name suggesting a connection to Campaspe, the mistress of Alexander the Great, the painting does not appear to have any clear historical references. It instead emphasizes Godward's themes of female beauty, serenity, and a dreamy nostalgia for a bygone classical age.

"Study of Campaspe" displays Godward’s mastery in painting marble environments, rich textures, and drapery, which all contribute to the visual feast the painting offers. Godward's meticulous attention to details can be seen in the ornamentation, fabric, and textures in the painting, evidencing his efforts to bring authenticity to classical themes.

While the reception or critique specifically of "Study of Campaspe" isn't well-documented, Godward's overall work was commercially successful during his lifetime, though critical reception was mixed. His reputation suffered after death, overshadowed by the modernist revolution in art, but regained esteem in recent decades for his technical proficiency and commitment to aesthetic beauty.

This work, like many others by Godward, belongs to a genre called "Victorian Neo-Classicism," or “Marble School,” a movement inspired by classical themes with an aim to escape the industrial reality of late 19th-century Britain. For these artists, the imagined purity of the classical world was a sanctuary, where they could express ideal beauty and nobility through their art.
