"The Evening Star" is a painting by the English artist Henry Ryland (1856–1924), known for his work in watercolors and as an illustrator. Ryland, a student of the South Kensington School of Art and the Royal Academy Schools, was influenced by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and the neoclassical style. His works often featured ethereal women in classical settings, and "The Evening Star" is no exception. The painting depicts a woman, likely an allegorical figure, in a flowing gown, with the evening star, also known as Venus, visible in the background. The subject is typically set against an idyllic landscape, which was a hallmark of Ryland's aesthetic approach.

The artwork is characteristic of Ryland's meticulous technique and his focus on beauty and romanticism. "The Evening Star" showcases his skill in capturing the interplay of light and texture, as well as his ability to convey a sense of serenity and contemplation. The painting's composition and the use of soft colors reflect Ryland's dedication to harmony and classical ideals in art.

As with many of Ryland's pieces, "The Evening Star" would have been well-received in the Victorian art market, where there was a high demand for his delicate and decorative style. Ryland's works were exhibited at prestigious venues such as the Royal Academy and the Royal Watercolour Society, contributing to his reputation during his lifetime.

"The Evening Star" is emblematic of Ryland's contribution to the late Victorian and Edwardian art scenes, encapsulating the era's taste for classical beauty and the escapism found in the romanticized past. The painting remains a testament to Ryland's artistic legacy and his role in the continuation of Pre-Raphaelite and neoclassical traditions in British art at the turn of the 20th century.
