Millais treasure trove goes on long-term loan to Scottish gallery

More than 150 works on paper and 19 paintings by Pre-Raphaelite artist John Everett Millais, along with personal correspondence, brushes, palettes, jewelry, and family heirlooms belonging to his wife Effie Gray, have been placed on long-term loan to Perth Art Gallery in Scotland. The collection, donated by Millais’s great-grandson Geoffroy Millais, includes highlights such as the painting *Halcyon Weather* (1892) and an 1853 watercolor portrait of Effie Gray. A free exhibition titled *Millais in Perthshire* will open on 25 July, featuring over 25 key objects from the loan alongside works from the gallery’s own holdings, including *Waking (Just Awake)* (1865) and *Portrait of Effie Millais* (1873).
