EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of John Everett Millais, a prominent figure in the Pre-Raphaelite movement. Taken by David Wilkie Wynfield in 1863, this albumin print showcases Millais as Dante Alighieri, the renowned Italian poet and author of "The Divine Comedy". In this portrait, Millais exudes an air of intellectualism and intensity. His face is captured in profile, highlighting his strong features and piercing gaze. Dressed in an elaborate costume complete with a civic crown and hood, he embodies the character of Dante with remarkable authenticity. Wynfield's mastery behind the lens brings out every intricate detail of Millais' attire, emphasizing its rich textures and ornate embellishments. The photographer's keen eye for composition allows us to appreciate both the grandeur of the costume and Millais' commanding presence within it. As a founding member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, Millais played a significant role in revolutionizing British art during the 19th century. This photograph not only serves as a testament to his artistic prowess but also reflects his deep appreciation for literature and history. With its timeless appeal and historical significance, this rare print offers viewers an intimate glimpse into one of Britain's most celebrated artists at work – capturing both his creative spirit and dedication to bringing characters from literary masterpieces to life on canvas.
