Image description

This painting depicts the Morning star - Phosphorus, and the Evening star - Hesperus (Greek gods). Phosphorus is rising, his pale torch held aloft, its flame strong, heralding the morning which is lightening the sky behind him. Hesperus’s evening starlight is fading, as his flame in its dark torch droops and gutters, his eyes are closing, his dark head anticipating the relaxation of sleep.
