"Fantasy in Twilight" by Edward Robert Hughes Poster

"Fantasy at Twilight" by Edward Robert Hughes was created in 1911 in the style of romanticism. The plot of the painting depicts a mysterious and magical time of day - twilight - the moment when the day has already burned out, and the night has not yet come into its own. The mystical transition of nature to sleep surrounds a girl dressed in dark blue clothes, playing a wooden pipe, with her eyes covered . Her head is covered with a piece of linen, from under which several golden curly locks are knocked out, and the last rays of the sun are reflected on the girl's face and hands. Edward Robert Hughes (1851-1914) was born into an artistic family and grew up among the followers of the Pre-Raphaelites, whose main motifs in painting were movement, sensuality, impulsiveness, emotionality and passion.
