"Phosphorus and Hesperus" is a painting by the English Pre-Raphaelite artist Evelyn Pickering De Morgan, created in 1881. This artwork is a notable example of De Morgan's interest in mythological and allegorical subjects, which she often infused with her own symbolic interpretations. The painting depicts the Greek mythological figures Phosphorus and Hesperus, who were often associated with the planet Venus as the morning star (Phosphorus) and the evening star (Hesperus).

In the painting, De Morgan explores the duality of light and darkness, and the cyclical nature of time and celestial phenomena. The figures are typically rendered with ethereal beauty and are set against a backdrop that reflects the artist's fascination with the natural world and the heavens. The use of vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail are characteristic of De Morgan's work and contribute to the dreamlike quality of the painting.

Evelyn Pickering De Morgan, born Evelyn Pickering (1855–1919), was a prolific painter whose style evolved from the Pre-Raphaelite tradition, with influences from Symbolism and Aestheticism. She was married to the ceramicist William De Morgan and was actively involved in the women's suffrage movement, which sometimes influenced the themes and subjects of her art.

"Phosphorus and Hesperus" is part of De Morgan's broader body of work that reflects her intellectual engagement with spiritualism and metaphysical concepts, as well as her technical skill as an artist. The painting is emblematic of her ability to weave complex narratives through visual art and is celebrated for its contribution to the late Victorian art scene.

The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it has been exhibited and studied as part of De Morgan's oeuvre. It continues to attract scholarly attention for its artistic merit and as an example of the artist's unique interpretation of classical mythology through a Victorian lens.
