Sold as a pair with “Glory of Morning.”  This duo of paintings was awarded in 1993 the Collector Editions Award of Excellence.  This was only time that Thom has ever published a duet piece of a cottage at dawn and one at dusk.  Thom described the painting as “its low-lying clouds, reflect the violet of sunset. That violet radiance colors the garden flowers, deepening their hues. Such glorious evenings as this lay a purple cloak upon the land... and every home becomes a castle.”
