"A Cottage on Fire at Night" is a painting by Joseph Wright of Derby, an English landscape and portrait painter who was renowned for his use of chiaroscuro and for capturing the spirit of the Industrial Revolution. Created between circa 1785 and 1793, this artwork exemplifies Wright's fascination with dramatic lighting and nocturnal scenes, which set him apart from his contemporaries.

The painting depicts a rural scene where a humble cottage is engulfed in flames under the cover of night. The fire's glow illuminates the surrounding landscape and the faces of the onlookers, creating a stark contrast between the warmth of the fire and the darkness of the night sky. Wright's skillful use of light and shadow not only highlights the intensity of the fire but also serves to evoke an emotional response from the viewer, capturing the horror and fascination that such a spectacle would elicit.

Joseph Wright of Derby, active during the 18th century, was closely associated with the Enlightenment period and was known for his interest in scientific and technological advancements. However, in "A Cottage on Fire at Night," he turns his attention to a more traditional subject, exploring themes of disaster, the power of nature, and the vulnerability of human life and dwellings.

The painting is a testament to Wright's ability to convey narrative and emotion through his art. It is a powerful example of his work that continues to draw interest for its historical context, technical mastery, and the insight it provides into the human condition during a time of great change. "A Cottage on Fire at Night" remains an important work within Wright's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of British art at the close of the 18th century.
