"Sacrifice of Jephthah's Daughter" is a painting by the British artist John Everett Millais, completed in 1867. Millais, a founding member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, is known for his detailed and vibrant works that often draw on literary and historical themes. This particular painting depicts a poignant scene from the biblical story of Jephthah, a judge of Israel, who vowed to sacrifice the first thing that greeted him upon his victorious return home if granted success in battle. Tragically, his daughter was the first to greet him.

Millais captures the emotional intensity of the moment with a focus on the daughter's serene acceptance of her fate, contrasting with the underlying tragedy of the narrative. The composition is marked by Millais' characteristic attention to detail, particularly in the rendering of the figures' expressions and the intricate textures of their garments. The use of light and color enhances the dramatic tension, with the daughter's calm demeanor illuminated against a somber background.

The painting reflects Millais' interest in exploring complex emotional and moral themes, a hallmark of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. It also exemplifies the group's commitment to realism and vivid color, achieved through meticulous technique and the use of bright, unadulterated pigments.

"Sacrifice of Jephthah's Daughter" is part of the collection at the National Museum of Wales, Cardiff. It continues to be studied for its artistic merit and its exploration of themes such as duty, sacrifice, and the tragic consequences of rash vows. The work remains a significant example of Millais' mid-career output and his contribution to 19th-century British art.
