holman-hunt, rossetti, and millais are famous for their gang, the pre-raphaelite brotherhood. besides disturbing the peace with their paintings of green trees (brown was the fashionable color for trees at the time), the brotherhood drew each other all the time. holman-hunt drew millais and rossetti (above). rossetti drew these great cartoon of millais and holman-hunt (below).
millais seems to be the flake of this portrait party but he wasn't. he worked his friends into his illustrations. can you "where's waldo" the portrait of rossetti in millais' painting below?
click the painting for a hint.
