The Millais Baronetcy, of Palace Gate in Kensington in the County of Middlesex and of St Ouen in Jersey, is a title in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 16 July 1885 for the painter and illustrator John Everett Millais. He was one of the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. As of 2014 the title is held by his great-grandson, the sixth Baronet, who succeeded his father in 1992.
