"A Sideways Glance" is a notable painting by the Italian-born British artist Charles Edward Perugini, who was active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Perugini, born in 1839, was a prominent figure in the Victorian art scene, known for his refined technique and his ability to capture the delicate beauty and grace of his subjects. He was closely associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group of English painters, poets, and critics founded in 1848, which sought to return to the detail, intense colors, and complex compositions of Quattrocento Italian art.

The painting "A Sideways Glance" exemplifies Perugini's skill in portraiture and his keen eye for detail. The work features a young woman, elegantly dressed, captured in a moment of introspection or perhaps subtle intrigue, as suggested by the title. The composition is characterized by its soft, yet vibrant color palette and the meticulous rendering of textures, from the delicate fabric of the woman's attire to the gentle waves of her hair. The subject's sideways glance adds a layer of narrative ambiguity, inviting viewers to ponder the story behind her expression and pose.

Perugini's work often reflects the influence of his contemporaries and mentors, including Frederic Leighton and John Everett Millais, both of whom were leading figures in the Victorian art world. "A Sideways Glance" is a testament to Perugini's ability to blend the romanticism and realism that defined much of the art from this period. The painting not only showcases his technical prowess but also his sensitivity to the subtleties of human emotion and expression.

Today, "A Sideways Glance" is appreciated for its artistic merit and its contribution to the rich tapestry of Victorian art. It remains a fine example of Perugini's oeuvre, capturing the elegance and enigmatic charm that characterize much of his work.
