Erection date: 1904
Inscription
{Front of the plinth:}
John Everett Millais
{On the base of the statue:}
T. Brock. RA Sc. 1904
Millais helped found the Tate Gallery in the building behind.
Peter Duby points out that this statue is unusual in that it incorporates a recognisable piece of furniture, the small table with a drawer. So far the only other statue so furnished (pun intended, sorry) we can recall is the Lincoln at Parliament Square, where the subject looks like he has just stood up.
