The night is in the portrait as a girl, naked and crawling at the bottom of the picture, as if she is about to sleep, with her dark head on her hands, surrounded by the moon and the stars and the night sky. Above her rises the Dawn, in the form of two young naked women, surrounded by the colours of the sunrise and with golden diadems. The rays of the rising sun illuminate their golden hair.
One woman's buttocks, back and a tit are visible and the other's legs, vulva, belly, torso and breasts. The night is depicted from the silk on the portrait.
Evelyn De Morgan (London, 30 August 1855 - there, 2 May 1919) was an English painter associated with the movement of the Pre-Raphaelites. She studied spiritualism, was an advocate of social reforms such as women's suffrage and was interested in moral issues. She derived her themes from religious and allegorical figures and scenes and strong female figures, often with a message of hope and courage.
