"Though the reputation of his [Maclise's] genre and dramatic pictures has declined from the height which it reached in his lifetime,this is not the case with his portraits or his great epical compositions.They are now widely acknowledged to be the greatest historical paintings of the English school, and D.G. Rossetti went even further when he wrote, 'These are such "historical" pictures as the world perhaps had never seen before'."
