Now Was The Day Departing | Gustave Doré | 1890

Now Was the Day Departing (1890) by Gustave Doré (1832–1883) depicts two cloaked figures pausing beneath a star-filled sky as the crescent moon rises above the distant horizon. Created as an illustration for Paradise Lost, the engraving captures a profound sense of stillness and contemplation, with Doré's masterful use of light and shadow evoking the beauty and mystery of the night.
