HUGUENOT, Sir John Everett Millais, Mrs. Miller, Preston, England; canvas, H. 3 ft. 2 in. × 2 ft. 1 in. Incident founded on the order of the Duc de Guise, that every Catholic should bind a strip of white linen round his arm on the morning of St. Bartholomew's Day (Aug. 15, 1572), when the bell of the Palais de Justice should give the signal for the massacre. The Huguenot of the picture gravely refuses to permit his Roman Catholic mistress to bind a white scarf around his arm, as he takes a last embrace; at the same time the rose in her bosom falls to the ground, shedding its leaves. Royal Academy, 1852; painted for David T. White, a dealer, for £150, to which £50 was added after the engraving by T. O. Barlow had proved remunerative. This picture brought Mr. Millais to the height of his reputation. The Huguenot was painted from Mr. Arthur, now General Lempriere, and the Catholic from Miss Ryan, who sat also for the Puritan Maiden in the Proscribed Royalist. Sketch in water-colours, Mr. C. Langton, Liverpool.
