Aurora Triumphans

Aurora Triumphans (Latin: Triumphant Aurora) is a painting by Evelyn De Morgan, featuring the Roman goddess of dawn Aurora, that breaks the shackles of night. Aurora lies naked in the lower right corner, covered with carefully draped ropes of pink roses. Taking up two-thirds of the painting, there are three red-winged angels with trumpets and gold tunics. In the lower left corner there is a dark-robed Night, that swirls away a black cloak. In 1886 the painting was exhibited at the Grosvenor Gallery in London.
