"Chill October" is an oil painting by the British artist Sir John Everett Millais, completed in 1870. This work is one of Millais' landscapes, a genre he increasingly turned to in the latter part of his career, moving away from the early Pre-Raphaelite style that initially defined his work. The painting depicts an autumnal scene that captures the essence of the changing season, characterized by a rich palette of russet and golden tones, and a sense of the fleeting beauty of nature.

Millais was a prolific artist and a founding member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, a group of English painters, poets, and critics, formed in 1848. The Brotherhood sought to reform art by rejecting what it considered the mechanistic approach first adopted by Mannerist artists who succeeded Raphael and Michelangelo. They believed in a return to the abundant detail, intense colors, and complex compositions of Quattrocento Italian and Flemish art.

In "Chill October," Millais' mastery in capturing natural light and his attention to detail are evident. The painting is often noted for its atmospheric quality and the way it conveys the damp, crisp feel of an autumn day. The scene is likely to have been inspired by the Scottish landscape, an area Millais frequently visited and where he eventually made his home. The work reflects the Victorian fascination with the changing seasons and the passage of time, themes that were common in the literature and art of the period.

"Chill October" is held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art galleries over the years. The painting is significant as an example of Millais' landscape art and for its place within the broader context of Victorian art and culture. It continues to be studied for its technical and thematic contributions to the landscape genre and is often cited in discussions of Millais' later career, when he moved away from the strictures of Pre-Raphaelitism and developed a more personal and evocative approach to painting.
