John Everett Millais

Today 8th June but some years ago, especifically in 1829, John E.Millais was born. I have to confess that I am an admirer of prerraphaelites even if there are some who insist on saying that their work was not worth paying so much attention to.

Here  I  leave some of his works celebrating what would have been his 184th birth anniversary. Happy  birthday Mr Millais!
