Sleeping Earth and Wakening Moon, c1905
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating portrait captured by the talented artist Mary Evelyn De Morgan. This mesmerizing print, taken from The Studio Volume 79 in London during 1920, transports us to an ethereal outdoor setting where nature's beauty intertwines with celestial wonder. In this enigmatic artwork, we witness a female figure resting peacefully upon jagged rocks under the night sky. Her nakedness symbolizes vulnerability and connection to the natural world surrounding her. With one hand gently placed on her head, she seems lost in deep slumber as if embracing the mysteries of sleep. The focal point of this composition lies beyond our dreaming lady - the wakening moon. Its circular form represents eternity while illuminating both darkness and secrets hidden within our solar system. As it emerges from its lunar realm, it casts a soft glow upon Sleeping Earth, creating an atmosphere of enchantment and intrigue. De Morgan's masterful portrayal invites contemplation about time itself - capturing a moment when day transitions into night or perhaps awakening after centuries-long slumber. It evokes thoughts about humanity's place within the vast cosmos and encourages reflection on our interconnectedness with nature. This extraordinary piece showcases De Morgan's artistic prowess in oil painting techniques while exploring profound concepts such as existence and cosmic harmony. Through her brushstrokes, she immortalizes not only a specific era but also timeless themes that continue to captivate audiences even today.
