The set became some of Thorvaldsen's most popular plates. Each of them symbolizes the two parts of the day, and together they symbolize day and night as a whole. "Day" is actively flying over the sky. She looks over her shoulder and looks at the little torch-bearing boy that symbolizes the light and the sun.
