Seated on a saddle in her father's studio, Effie Millais poses as Nell Gwynne, the actress and mistress to King Charles II. Her horse was to be added later in the joint painting by Millais and Sir Edwin Landseer. The two artists were close friends and Millais completed the painting in 1882, upon Landseer's request, after his death in 1873, along with three others.
