Peace Concluded

Genre Scenes

Peace Concluded, 1856 is a painting by the English artist John Everett Millais, completed in 1856, which depicts a wounded British officer reading a report in The Times newspaper announcing the end of the Crimean War. It was shown at the Royal Academy in 1856 to mixed reviews but was strongly praised by the critic John Ruskin, who predicted it would come to be recognized as among the world's finest masterpieces. The central female figure is a portrait of Millais's wife Effie Gray, who had previously been married to Ruskin. The painting is now held in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts.
