The artist's masterful use of light creates a mesmerizing atmosphere, making it feel as though we are witnessing this nocturnal spectacle firsthand. This 19th-century artwork showcases Millet's ability to blend reality with imagination seamlessly. Through his brushstrokes, he invites us into his world of fantasy and escapism, where ordinary mortals can transcend earthly boundaries and take flight among the stars. Displayed at National Museum Wales under the care of National Museums & Galleries of Wales, this painting continues to captivate art enthusiasts from around the globe.
