"The Black Brunswicker" is a painting by Sir John Everett Millais, an eminent artist associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, which was completed in 1860. The artwork is renowned for its romantic and dramatic portrayal of a poignant farewell between a couple, set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars. The painting depicts a soldier, dressed in the black uniform of the Brunswick Hussars, sharing a tender yet sorrowful moment with his lover as he prepares to depart for battle. The woman, clad in a white dress, clings to her lover, attempting to dissuade him from leaving, which adds to the emotional intensity of the scene.

Millais's work is celebrated for its meticulous attention to detail and its vibrant realism, characteristics that are exemplified in "The Black Brunswicker." The contrast between the black of the soldier's uniform and the white of the woman's dress enhances the thematic juxtapositions of love and duty, intimacy and separation. The painting not only captures the personal agony of the couple but also reflects the broader turmoil and heroism associated with the era of the Napoleonic Wars.

"The Black Brunswicker" is held in high regard for its historical accuracy in costume and setting, as well as for its deep emotional resonance. It remains a significant work in Millais's oeuvre, illustrating the artist's skill in combining historical narrative with profound human emotion. This painting is housed in the Lady Lever Art Gallery, Port Sunlight, near Liverpool, and continues to attract viewers with its compelling narrative and exquisite craftsmanship.
