Description:

Night crouches at the bottom of the picture, as if about to sleep, her dark head pillowed on her hands, surrounded by the moon and stars and night sky. Above her rises the Dawn, in the shape of two young women, surrounded by the colours of the sunrise, and wearing golden diadems. The rays of the rising sun illuminate their golden hair.
