John-Everett Millais - Paintings
John Everett Millais
, who is considered a founding member of the Pre-Raphaelites, was a major portrait and genre painter in Great Britain. His work is classified both, as Realism and as Symbolism.
Born on June 08, 1829 in Southampton.
Died on August 13, 1896 in London.
After two years of art education, John Everett Millais, who was regarded as extremely talented, became a member of the Royal Academy in London, being an eleven year-old boy. Just six years later, he emerged in public with his first work "Pizarro's defeat of the Incas" (1846, London's Victoria and Albert Museum). In 1848, he founded the Order of the Pre-Raphaelites together with William Holman Hunt and Dante Gabriel Rossetti. This association turns itself against the traditional academicism. It based its painting style before and during the lifetime of Raphael. The primary criterion for this group was an extreme fidelity to nature, as required by the art theorist J. Ruskin. John Everett Millais used the theories of the Pre-Raphaelites in the painting "Christ in his Parents' House" (1849/1850, London, Tate Gallery) in practice and gave rise to a scandal using too much realism for a Christian theme, presented at that time. His later work consisted largely of popular, sentimental genre paintings, in accordance with the Victorian style.
