The Eve of St. Agnes

Artist: John Everett Millais
Artwork: The Eve of St. Agnes
Description: The painting depicts the moment in John Keats’ poem “The Eve of St. Agnes” when Porphyro enters Madeline’s chamber. Madeline is shown as a pale, ethereal figure in a white dress, while Porphyro is dressed in a rich, dark robe. The painting is full of symbolism, such as the use of light and dark to represent the conflict between good and evil, and the presence of the rosary and crucifix to represent Madeline’s religious faith.
