Talk about E.W. Godwin by Aileen Reid

2nd Dec, 2025
Online event

Although his fame today rests largely on his distinguished Aesthetic Movement furniture and friendships with Oscar Wilde and J.M. Whistler, throughout his life E.W. Godwin (1833–86) styled himself 'architect' above and before anything else. Although the legacy of his buildings is relatively small, his architectural design reached unmatched heights of creativity and distinctiveness, whether in his early years as a leading exponent of Ruskinian Gothic at Northampton Town Hall or in his radical approach to domestic design in his later artists' studio houses in Chelsea.
