Crease on bottom left corner not affecting image. Published in Vanity Fair 10 June 1871.The Tichborne case was a legal cause célèbre that captivated Victorian England in the 1860s and 1870s. It concerned the claims by an individual sometimes referred to as Thomas Castro or as Arthur Orton but usually termed "the Claimant" to be the missing heir to the Tichborne baronetcy. He failed to convince the courts was convicted of perjury and served a long prison sentence.Roger Tichborne heir to the family's title and fortunes was presumed to have died in a shipwreck in 1854 at age 25. His mother clung to a belief that he might have survived and after hearing rumours that he had made his way to Australia she advertised extensively in Australian newspapers offering a reward for information. In 1866 a butcher known as Thomas Castro from Wagga Wagga came forward claiming to be Roger Tichborne. Although his manners and bearing were unrefined he gathered support and travelled to England. He was instantly accepted by Lady Tichborne as her son although other family members were dismissive and sought to expose him as an impostor.During protracted enquiries before the case went to court in 1871 details emerged suggesting that the Claimant might be Arthur Orton a butcher's son from Wapping in London who had gone to sea as a boy and had last been heard of in Australia. After a civil court had rejected the Claimant's case he was charged with perjury; while awaiting trial he campaigned throughout the country to gain popular support. In 1874 a criminal court jury decided that he was not Roger Tichborne and declared him to be Arthur Orton. Before passing a sentence of 14 years the judge condemned the behaviour of the Claimant's counsel Edward Kenealy who was subsequently disbarred because of his conduct.After the trial Kenealy instigated a popular radical reform movement the Magna Charta Association which championed the Claimant's cause for some years. Kenealy was elected to Parliament in 1875 as a radical independent but was not an effective parliamentarian. The movement was in decline when the Claimant was released in 1884 and he had no dealings with it. In 1895 he confessed to being Orton only to recant almost immediately. He lived generally in poverty for the rest of his life and was destitute at the time of his death in 1898. Although most commentators have accepted the court's view that the Claimant was Orton some analysts believe that an element of doubt remains as to his true identity and that conceivably he was Roger Tichborne.

18-3189London: Vanity Fair 1871. Original colour lithograph. 13.5 x 8.5 inches accompanied by 1 sheet of description. Very Good. Published in Vanity Fair 13 May 1871.Sir John Everett Millais 1st Baronet PRA /ˈmɪleɪ/; 8 June 1829 – 13 August 1896 was an English painter and illustrator who was one of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. He was a child prodigy who aged eleven became the youngest student to enter the Royal Academy Schools. The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood was founded at his family home in London at 83 Gower Street now number 7. Millais became the most famous exponent of the style his painting Christ in the House of His Parents 1850 generating considerable controversy and painting perhaps the embodiment of the school Ophelia in 1850-51.By the mid-1850s Millais was moving away from the Pre-Raphaelite style to develop a new form of realism in his art. His later works were enormously successful making Millais one of the wealthiest artists of his day but some former admirers including William Morris saw this as a sell-out Millais notoriously allowed one of his paintings to be used for a sentimental soap advertisement. While these and early 20th-century critics reading art through the lens of Modernism viewed much of his later production as wanting this perspective has changed in recent decades as his later works have come to be seen in the context of wider changes and advanced tendencies in the broader late nineteenth-century art world and can now be seen as predictive of the art world of the present.Millais's personal life has also played a significant role in his reputation. His wife Effie was formerly married to the critic John Ruskin who had supported Millais's early work. The annulment of the marriage and her wedding to Millais have sometimes been linked to his change of style but she became a powerful promoter of his work and they worked in concert to secure commissions and expand their social and intellectual circles.
