So, my artist's name is John Everett Millais. He was born June 8, 1829. He was an English fellow and enjoyed to paint and printmake. He belonged to and co-founded the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, which was also a movement. He had some sort of fascination with wild, bleak landscapes, and experimented with it greatly in his works. He also did several illustrations in books of the period and also many magazines. He died in 1896, and had a statue erected for him in memorium by the Prince of Wales, later known as King Edward VII. Pretty interesting stuff he made, for sure. Check it out if you feel like it...
