\ATXsh255 Together with Dante Gabriel Rossetti and William Holman Hunt, he founded the Pre-Rapha
elite Brotherhood in 1848. It was in the fertile environment of this association that he painted his best works, including \i Christ in the House of His Parents\i0 , 1850, and \i Ophelia\i0 , 1852 (London, Tate Gallery). MillaisÆs painting took on natura
listic tones, at times verging on the pathetic and sentimental, but redeemed by its great dignity of style and constant moral tension. In his later work this equilibrium seems to break down, resulting in a more facile and academic style (\i Childhood of
Raleigh\i0 , 1870, London, Tate Gallery). His production of woodcuts was also important.\ATXsh4607
