Maude Goodman (1860–1938) was a British painter.
Goodman was born in Manchester but moved to London where she became a pupil of Edward Poynter.[1] She married Arthur Scanes in 1882 but continued to use her maiden name. She exhibited 54 works during the years 1874-1901 at the Royal Academy.[2] She also showed works at the Chicago World Exposition in 1893.[3]
Her painting Hush was included in the 1905 book Women Painters of the World.[4]

Hush
She was mentioned by Dorothy L. Sayers in The Wimsey Papers VI as an overly-cloying painter of idealised children in Arcadian settings; the writer reported that the boys in her nursery of the 1890s took a gift Goodman out of its frame and used it as a pea-shooting target. [5]
