- A Huguenot
Infobox Painting image file Huguenot lovers on St. Bartholomew s Day.jpg backcolor FBF5DF painting alignment right image size 250px title A Huguenot on St Bartholomew s day artist John Everett Millais year 1852 type Oil painting Oil on canvas height 92.71 width 64.13 height inch 36.5 width inch 25.25 city museum Private Collection A Huguenot, on St. Bartholomew s Day, Refusing to Shield Himself from Danger by Wearing the Roman Catholic Badge 1852 is a painting by John Everett Millais . The long title is usually abbreviated to A Huguenot or A Huguenot on St Bartholomew s Day . It depicts a pair of young lovers in an embrace. The familiar subject is given a dramatic twist because the embrace is in fact an attempt by the girl to get her beloved to wear a white armband, declaring his allegiance to Roman Catholicism . The young man gently pulls the armband off with the same hand with which he embraces the girl. The incident refers to the St. Bartholomew s Day massacre in 1572 when French Protestants Huguenots were massacred in Paris, leading to other massacres elsewhere in France. A small number of Protestants escaped from the city by wearing white armbands. Millais had initially planned simply to depict lovers, but had been persuaded by his Pre Raphaelite colleague William Holman Hunt that the subject was too trite. After seeing Giacomo Meyerbeer s opera Les Huguenots , which tells the story of the massacre, Millais adapted the painting to refer to the event. In the opera the character Valentine also attempts unsuccessfully to get her lover Raoul to wear the armband. ref name Tate Gallery 1984, p.99 Tate Gallery, The Pre Raphaelites , 1984, p.99 ref The choice of a pro Protestant subject was also significant because the Pre Raphaelites had previously been attacked for their alleged sympathies to the Oxford Movement and to Catholicism. ref Alastair Grieve, The Pre Raphaelite Brotherhood and the Anglican High Church , The Burlington Magazine , Vol. 111, No. 794 May, 1969 ... more details
