A child prodigy - he entered the Royal Academy as its youngest ever student at the age of just 11 - John Everett Millais (1829-1896) rose to prominence as one of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. In the view of the art critic John Ruskin, Millais was the most powerful of them all, but he also allied himself with the Victorian artistic establishment. He achieved fame and great wealth as the painter of some of the era's best-known pictures, including Ophelia, Christ in the House of His Parents and The Boyhood of Raleigh, as well as portraits of the most celebrated men and fashionable women of the day, numerous paintings of children, engravings and illustrative work.
