John Everett Millais is admired as one of the most celebrated of Pre-Raphaelite painters. Perhaps less well known is the major contribution he made both to book and periodical illustration between 1852 and 1883. This important new book is the first to present all of his published illustrations, with faithful reproduction of the designs. There is a discussion of every image, giving the literary context, which explains the meanings Millais wished to convey and illuminate. The original designs are chiefly wood-engravings, with a small number of etchings and steel-engravings that he undertook through his career. Anybody interested in printing, illustration or the Pre-Raphaelites in general will find this book helpful and informative.
