This is a painting by Sir John Everett Millais currently being exhibited at Bolton Museum and Art Gallery. The painting is titled 'The Somnambulist' 1871. This painting is rarely on display, but Bolton Museum has had this painting for over 40 years or more. It's not as famously known as some of his other work, but it is still as beautiful. The painting is about a sleepwalker. It's atmospheric the sombre colours put you in a dream world. It could also represent being in a nightmare, what's moody and dark.
