"Bubbles" (originally titled "A Child's World") is a renowned oil painting by Sir John Everett Millais, an English painter and illustrator who was one of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Created in 1886, this artwork depicts Millais's grandson, Willie James, who would later become Admiral Sir William James, looking intently at a bubble he has just created with a pipe and a bowl of soapy water. The painting is a striking example of Millais's later works, where he moved away from the highly detailed and vividly colored Pre-Raphaelite style to a more broadly appealing aesthetic.

The painting is notable for its lifelike representation and the use of lighting to enhance the ephemeral quality of the bubble, symbolizing the fragility and transience of life and childhood innocence. The young boy's focused gaze and the delicate bubble serve as a poignant reminder of the fleeting moments of youth. The background of the painting features a lush garden, adding to the idyllic and somewhat nostalgic atmosphere of the scene.

"Bubbles" gained widespread recognition, not only for its artistic merit but also because it was used in a famous advertising campaign. The painting was purchased by the soap manufacturer A & F Pears, which used the image to market its products, making it one of the earliest examples of commercial use of fine art for advertising. This association with soap advertising led to the painting's lasting popular nickname, "Bubbles."

The work is now housed in the Lady Lever Art Gallery in Port Sunlight, Merseyside, England, and remains one of Millais's most beloved and recognized paintings. Its commercial and cultural impact, along with its artistic significance, has cemented "Bubbles" as an important piece in the history of British art.
