"Effie Deans" is an oil painting by the eminent Pre-Raphaelite artist Sir John Everett Millais, completed in 1871. The artwork is inspired by the character Effie Deans from Sir Walter Scott's historical novel "The Heart of Midlothian," first published in 1818. The novel is part of the "Waverley Novels," a series that played a significant role in popularizing the historical fiction genre.

In Millais's portrayal, Effie Deans is depicted with a poignant expression, embodying the innocence and tragedy of her character's narrative within the novel. The painting captures a moment of contemplation and sorrow, reflective of the challenges Effie faces in the story, where she is wrongfully accused of infanticide, a crime she did not commit.

Millais's work is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and vibrant color palette, hallmarks of the Pre-Raphaelite movement, which sought to reject the formulaic approach of the Royal Academy and return to the rich detail, intense colors, and complex compositions of Quattrocento Italian art. The artist's dedication to realism and the emotional depth of his subjects is evident in "Effie Deans," which stands as a testament to Millais's technical skill and his ability to convey narrative through visual art.

The painting is notable for its historical and cultural significance, as it reflects the Victorian fascination with literary themes and the era's moral sensibilities. "Effie Deans" has been exhibited in various art galleries and has garnered attention for its artistic merit and its representation of a beloved literary character. It remains an important work within Millais's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its aesthetic qualities and its place within the context of 19th-century British art.
