The Signal 検索 Collage Print

This art print reimagines John William Godward's "The Signal" through a modern lens. In this original collage design, the iconic female figure from the painting is transformed, seated in a wave beneath the water’s surface. The word "検索" (meaning "search" in Japanese) mix with her. 

John William Godward, a master of the Neoclassical style, was known for his highly detailed and idealized depictions of women in serene, classical settings. Often compared to his contemporaries, such as Lawrence Alma-Tadema, Godward’s works evoke the elegance of ancient Rome, yet he faced criticism for sticking closely to tradition during a time when more modern styles were emerging.

Printed on premium 10.3 mil matte paper with vibrant water-based inkjet, this print captures a unique fusion of classical beauty, modern design, and philosophical reflection. Ideal for those who appreciate both timeless art and bold, conceptual reinterpretations.
