EDITORS COMMENTS
My First Sermon, 1863" is a captivating portrait captured by the talented artist John Everett Millais. The painting depicts his daughter Effie, who was around five years old at the time, sitting upright and somewhat apprehensive in a church pew while listening to the preacher's message. The location of this poignant scene is believed to be All Saints Church in Kingston-on-Thames, Surrey. Effie's nervousness and anticipation are palpable as she wears a beautiful hat and cape, showcasing her Victorian-era attire. Her wide-eyed expression reflects both curiosity and trepidation as she engages with the religious sermon unfolding before her. This oil painting serves as a companion piece to another artwork created shortly after, where Effie is depicted fast asleep during a church service that has lost its novelty for her. Together, these paintings beautifully capture the fleeting nature of childhood innocence and wonder. Displayed at the Guildhall Art Gallery in London, "My First Sermon" showcases Millais' mastery of capturing human emotions through his artistic style associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. This historical piece offers viewers an intimate glimpse into both social history and religious practices of 19th-century Britain. As we admire this print today, it reminds us of the timeless themes explored by artists throughout different centuries – innocence giving way to experience and our ever-evolving relationship with faith.
