"Day" is a watercolor painting by the British artist Simeon Solomon, created in 1884. Solomon, known for his association with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and his exploration of themes related to mythology, religion, and same-sex desire, often infused his works with rich symbolism and emotional depth.

This particular piece, "Day," is part of a pair, with its counterpart titled "Night." The paintings are emblematic of Solomon's interest in allegorical subjects, a common theme in his oeuvre. "Day" features a personification of daytime, often depicted with luminous colors and serene expressions, capturing the essence of light and awakening. The figure in "Day" is typically adorned with elements that symbolize the morning or the sun, such as flowers or rays of light, reflecting the transition from darkness to light.

Solomon's style is characterized by delicate lines and a soft palette, which are evident in "Day." His use of watercolor allows for subtle gradations of color, enhancing the ethereal quality of the work. The painting reflects Solomon's mastery in conveying mood and atmosphere, inviting viewers to contemplate the cyclical nature of time and existence.

Despite his early success, Solomon's career was marred by scandal due to his arrest for homosexual acts, which was illegal at the time. This significantly affected his reputation and financial stability. However, his work, including "Day," has been reassessed in recent years, gaining appreciation for its artistic merit and its exploration of themes that were ahead of its time.

"Day" is housed in various collections, including the Delaware Art Museum, which holds a significant number of Solomon's works. The painting continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance, offering insight into the complex interplay of identity, art, and society in the Victorian era.
