Sir John Everett Millais's "Pomona" (1882) portrays a young girl dressed in a white dress and blue sash, reminiscent of the Roman goddess of fruit trees and orchards. The girl, holding an apple, stands next to a basket overflowing with fruit, emphasizing the theme of abundance. The soft light and detailed brushwork create a sense of tranquility and beauty, typical of Millais's Pre-Raphaelite style. The work is currently held in a private collection.
