Blow Blow Thou Winter Wind | John Everett Millais | 1892

In this late work, John Everett Millais (1829–1896) depicts a bleak winter landscape swept by cold wind and muted light, where a solitary figure huddles against the harshness of the season. Inspired by Shakespeare’s song from As You Like It, the scene blends poetic reference with quiet realism, using the snow-covered ground and bare trees to evoke endurance, melancholy, and the indifferent power of nature. The restrained palette and spacious composition turn the English countryside into a moving meditation on cold, solitude, and human vulnerability.
