Charles Courtney Curran — Girls with Garden Lanterns at Dusk Postcard

As evening settles over the roses, two girls in white each hold up a glowing paper lantern, their warm light spilling across the dark foliage around them. Charles Courtney Curran painted this hour better than almost anyone — the last blue of dusk against candlelight.

Curran painted very few night scenes, so this one stands out for anyone collecting his work.
