		Effie was born in Perth, Scotland and lived in Bowerswell, the house where Ruskin's grandfather had committed suicide.
		There is no reason to doubt Effie's sincerity, but her intervention helped to break up the engagement, probably contributing to Ruskin's later mental breakdown.
		However, there is no evidence that Effie consciously pressured him to do so, though she was an effective manager of his career and often collaborated with him in choosing subjects.

		It is at a carnival that Effie finally heeds her calling, summoned by Fanny Miller, a brothel keeper who sees something of her dead daughter in Effie.
		Besides, 'Euphemia' means 'to speak well', and since Effie is not the most articulate of narrators (in her narrative which knows it is prose), this is probably another sign of Atkinson's wordplay at work.

		At the age of 29 Ruskin married Effie Gray but the marriage ended disastrously six years later, when Effie eloped with the painter Millais.
		Ruskin buried himself in work, in particular a lengthy study of the city of Venice, producing a remarkable three-volume study of the architecture of the city.
		It marked the maturing of Ruskin’s interest in social justice and the beginning of his attempts to influence the shape of society.

		The original New York production was supported by descendants of the real Effie, who were eager to clear the name of their great-great-grandmother, a woman who, exiled from the Queen's court, has been reviled for a century, for defying her husband's will.
		On their wedding night, Ruskin, seeing his wife naked for the first time, pronounced her 'diseased.' What the play coyly avoids saying is that this diagnosis stemmed from Effie's failure to live up to his ideal of female beauty; i.e., she had -- dare we say it -- pubic hair.
		Especially appealing are Emma Roberts as a luminous Effie, and Gabriel Olds as a fiery, sensual Millais.

	The Case of Poor J.R. \| TIME
		Nor was there reason why an innocent Scots girl like Effie Gray should not be elated at being the chosen "Medusa" of a man who, although still in his 20s, was England's most admired art critic.
		No wonder that, on his wedding night, Ruskin coolly informed Effie that sexual intercourse was irreligious, that he hated children, and that in any case she was too young (20) to consummate her marriage and must wait five years.
		He had ascribed her nervousness to too much coffee and too much sightseeing, and had written blandly to her father that although he was "thoroughly puzzled about the whole affair," he feared that Effie's "restiveness" was due to "incipient insanity" which made her unfit to become a mother.

		The play is Murphy’s account of one of the great domestic scandals of the Victorian era, the marriage between John Ruskin and Effie Gray, and it has been running at the Samuel Beckett since the summer, having transferred there after a sold-out eight-week engagement at the Greenwich Theater downtown.
		Not for the reasons one would think, however (her growing friendship with Millais, which Ruskin appears to have fostered and encouraged), but rather owing to the circumstances of the existing marriage as they were ultimately disclosed in court.
		As Effie Gray, she spends a good deal of the play in a state of near emotional check, listening, sifting, registering, absorbing, interpreting–not that she doesn’t have a lot to say, but it’s largely Effie’s moral development that we’re concerned with, things that seem to take place when other people are talking.
