"Benares at Night" is a watercolor painting by the English artist Albert Goodwin (1845–1932), who was known for his landscapes and imaginative works. Goodwin, a protégé of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and an associate of John Ruskin, often traveled extensively, capturing the essence of the locations he visited in his art. The painting depicts the ancient city of Varanasi (also known as Benares) in India, renowned for its spiritual significance and as a major pilgrimage destination for Hindus.

Created during one of Goodwin's journeys to India, "Benares at Night" captures the city's atmospheric conditions at twilight, a time when the city's ghats and architectural features are shrouded in the soft glow of the setting sun and the emerging night. The artwork is characterized by its use of light and shadow, which reflects Goodwin's fascination with the interplay of natural light and its effects on the landscape.

The painting is notable for its blend of precise architectural detail and the ethereal quality of the evening light. Goodwin's technique involves a masterful control of watercolor, allowing him to create a sense of depth and luminosity. The work is a testament to Goodwin's skill in rendering not just the physicality of a place, but also its mood and atmosphere.

"Benares at Night" is considered an important work within Goodwin's oeuvre, as it exemplifies his lifelong interest in capturing the transient effects of light and his ability to convey a sense of place through his art. The painting is held in a private collection or a public institution, and it continues to be appreciated by art historians and enthusiasts for its artistic and cultural significance.
