Godward's two priestesses

We can read the following in Wikipedia:

John William Godward (August 9, 1861 – December 13, 1922) was an English painter from the end of the Pre-Raphaelite / Neo-Classicist era. He was a protégé of Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema but his style of painting fell out of favour with the arrival of painters like Picasso. He committed suicide at the age of 61 and is said to have written in his suicide note that "the world was not big enough" for him and a Picasso.

Another proof of the fact that the mafia of the scarabocchi (yes, my dear, Picasso included) did its worst in order to destroy all painters that knew how to paint.

Here on the right you have TWO Priestess(es): the one you can find on Wikipedia as well, and another one, sligltly more, ahem, discint. Click on the images on the right to enlarge.

Again, note the marble (inter alia). Again: no wonder that the scribblers didn't like such painters.
