About the piece
Edward Robert Hughes’ 1912 masterpiece, 'Night with her Train of Stars,' is a pinnacle of late Pre-Raphaelite aestheticism. This ethereal watercolor depicts a crowned, winged figure of Night cradling a child, trailing a luminous 'train' of stars personified by golden-haired cherubs. The deep sapphire sky and shimmering textures create a magical, immersive atmosphere that has made this one of the most beloved works in the Birmingham Museums Trust collection.
