In 1853, London Society was shocked by the notorious scandal surrounding John Ruskin, the preeminent Victorian art critic and essayist, his young wife Effie, and his friend and protege, the
Pre-Raphaelite artist John Everett Millais.
Based on that true-life story, The Countess is an account of madness,
cruelty, and obsession, as well as a tender and touching love story.
