Painting Description
"Night and Sleep" is an oil painting by the British Pre-Raphaelite artist Evelyn Pickering De Morgan, created in 1878. The artwork is a visual exploration of the themes of darkness and repose, depicting the allegorical figures of Night and Sleep intertwined in a celestial embrace. Night, characterized by her dark, flowing drapery and a star-studded cloak, cradles the figure of Sleep, who is enveloped in lighter, more ethereal garments, suggesting the contrast between the deep oblivion of night and the gentler realm of sleep.
Evelyn De Morgan, born Evelyn Pickering, was a prolific painter associated with the Pre-Raphaelite movement, known for her use of vibrant colors, spiritual and mythological subject matter, and her commitment to suffragist ideals. "Night and Sleep" is emblematic of De Morgan's interest in spiritualism and the metaphysical, as it captures a moment of transition between the conscious and unconscious worlds.
The painting is a testament to De Morgan's technical skill and her ability to convey complex, intangible concepts through her art. The use of light and shadow, as well as the intricate detail in the figures' expressions and the surrounding environment, contribute to the overall dreamlike quality of the piece. "Night and Sleep" is considered one of De Morgan's significant works, contributing to the understanding of late 19th-century symbolist art in Britain.
As of the knowledge cutoff date, "Night and Sleep" is part of a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art galleries and museums, allowing the public to appreciate De Morgan's unique contribution to the Pre-Raphaelite canon and British art history. The painting continues to be studied and admired for its beauty, craftsmanship, and the depth of its symbolic content.
