The Mill is an Aesthetic Movement, Renaissance-inspired oil on canvas painting completed by Edward Burne-Jones in 1882.
The painting's main feature is three women dancing in front of a mill pond on a summer evening, with a vague wooded landscape spanning the background.
[3] The Mill was inspired by The Allegory of Good and Bad Government, a mural painted by Italian Renaissance artist Ambrogio Lorenzetti between 1338 and 1340.
[5] Aglaia was the daughter of Constantine Ionides, who, like Burne-Jones, was interested in art.
[6] In the painting, three women wearing simple, Renaissance-style aesthetic dresses[3] are dancing in a garden on a summer evening.
