Original Description
"The Night Passeth And The Day Cometh" by Harry Morley (1881–1943) is a captivating Symbolist painting that masterfully captures the transitional moment between night and dawn. Created during Britain’s interwar period, Morley’s work embodies the ethereal quality of early 20th-century allegorical art, blending Pre-Raphaelite influences with Art Nouveau elegance. The painting depicts a spectral female figure draped in flowing veils, her form dissolving like mist as she gestures toward the emerging light—a poetic personification of night yielding to day. Morley’s meticulous brushwork creates luminous textures, where silvery moonlight battles golden sunrise in chromatic harmony. Though less celebrated than his stained glass designs, this oil painting represents Morley’s signature fusion of spiritual symbolism and decorative refinement, occupying a unique niche between Victorian romanticism and modernist abstraction. Its dreamlike atmosphere invites contemplation of cyclical renewal, making it a significant though often overlooked gem in British Symbolist art history.
For interior styling, this painting deserves prominent placement as a focal point in spaces craving sophisticated serenity. Ideal for a study or bedroom accent wall, its 76x64cm dimensions suit above mantels or console tables—always lit with adjustable spotlights to enhance its metallic tones. Pair with rich, textured fabrics like velvet drapery in deep blues or charcoal grays to accentuate the celestial palette. The artwork’s vertical composition harmonizes with tall bookshelves or arched mirrors, while gilt-framed prints of Alphonse Mucha’s works could create a cohesive Art Nouveau gallery wall. In corporate settings, it elevates executive offices or reception areas when combined with streamlined mid-century furniture—the painting’s timeless allegory offering a sophisticated counterpoint to modern aesthetics. Opt for matte black or dark walnut frames to intensify its mystical glow without competing with the delicate imagery.
