Thread: John Everett Millais (1829-96) was a co-founder of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB) & a critically successful & important artist who descended into popular commercial work & sentimentality in later life. At his best he was superb. Ophelia (detail, 1851)
Born in Southampton he was a child prodigy attending the RA Schools aged 11 (1840). There he met Holman Hunt & Rossetti & they formed the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Wrestlers (1840-1), Drawing from the Antique (1842) & Nude (1847)

Thread: John William Waterhouse (1849-1917) was a late English follower of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. His romantic vision remains popular today & is amongst the finest Late Victorian art. Lady of Shalott (1888) is perhaps his most famous work.
Born in Rome to English painter parents he enrolled in the RA (1871)& exhibited at their annual shows. His interest was in Arthurian & Classical mythology. Undine (1872), Gone but Not Forgotten (1873) & The Unwelcome Companion (1873)
