A little help choosing
Choosing your Millais painting
Ophelia combines a wide river scene with dense green foliage, small flowers and the pale figure lying across the water. Mariana offers an upright alternative, with a deep blue dress, glowing stained glass and warm autumn colours. Both reward close viewing, though their shapes suit different areas of wall.
The Black Brunswicker creates a stronger contrast between a black uniform and a white satin dress. For a quieter landscape, Dew-Drenched Furze draws the eye into misty woodland through muted greens and browns. Isabella is busier, filling a broad composition with figures and bright costume. Consider whether you want a concentrated figure, a detailed story or a more subdued landscape.
Size and framing
Compare the broad composition of Ophelia with the upright Mariana when planning your wall space. The listed sizes for our fine art reproductions give you a starting point, and we can quote for a custom size that preserves the composition. Allow additional space for your chosen frame.
Our frames are handmade to order. Choose a frame moulding and colour finish to complement the painting and your room, from antique gold or silver to contemporary painted finishes, including actual Farrow & Ball shades. We can help shortlist suitable combinations.
After discussing suitable sizes and prices, we can prepare a free room mock-up so you can compare the painting’s scale and proposed framing in your own space.

About Sir John Everett Millais
British painter and founding Pre-Raphaelite, 1829–1896
John Everett Millais was born in Southampton and showed exceptional artistic ability as a child. He entered the Royal Academy Schools in 1840, becoming their youngest student. In 1848, with William Holman Hunt and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, he helped establish the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, seeking a fresh approach to painting through clear colour and close attention to detail.
His early pictures drew on literature, religion and history. Isabella introduced his new style to Royal Academy audiences, while Christ in the House of His Parents provoked criticism for its treatment of a sacred subject. In Mariana, detailed furnishings, stained glass and a figure’s posture turn a literary story into an image of waiting.
Millais’s career extended well beyond these early works. He became a successful portrait painter, developing broader brushwork and a different relationship with the Old Masters. His standing within British art grew steadily: he was made a baronet in 1885 and elected President of the Royal Academy in 1896, the year of his death.
