This (and an other) painting might have inspired Henry Holiday when he drew one of the illustrations to Lewis Carroll's "The Hunting of the Snark" (1876): https://t.co/xmBgdy8FQJ pic.twitter.com/LGqRgrhmXs

Millais' "Boyhood of Raleigh" seems to have been a quite inspiring painting to his student, Henry Holiday.

Need I rehearse the history of Jowett?
I need not, Senior Censor, for you know it.
That was the Board Hebdomadal, and oh!
Who would be free, themselves must strike the blow!
(Lewis Carroll, from "Notes by an Oxford chiel", 1874)
