Anahita: A Study for The Flight of Night is a notable artwork by the American painter William Morris Hunt, created in the 19th century. This piece is a preparatory study for Hunt's larger and more famous mural, The Flight of Night, which was commissioned for the ceiling of the New York State Capitol in Albany. The artwork depicts Anahita, the Persian goddess associated with fertility, healing, and wisdom, which reflects Hunt's interest in mythological subjects and his ability to imbue his works with a sense of romanticism and mystique.

The study showcases Hunt's skillful use of chiaroscuro and his adeptness in capturing the ethereal and dynamic qualities of mythical figures. Anahita is portrayed in a moment of serene motion, which is a testament to Hunt's ability to convey movement and emotion through his brushwork. This piece not only serves as an important precursor to the final mural but also stands on its own as a significant example of American Romanticism and the 19th-century fascination with mythological themes.

Anahita: A Study for The Flight of Night holds a place in the history of American art, illustrating the period's artistic trends and the personal style of William Morris Hunt, who was a key figure in the American art scene of his time.
