About this work

This painting, titled The Moon and Sleep by Simeon Solomon and dated 1894, shows two figures in close profile facing each other against a deep blue night sky dotted with stars. A pale crescent moon rests behind the figure on the left, whose hair and grey draped garment are rendered in soft, flowing brushwork, while the figure on the right has closed eyes and a dreamy expression. Distant hills fade into the dark blue landscape below.
