Sun-setting
Sun-setting was describ’d as a child having a bright star on his fore-head, clad in a red garment,
girt with a sky-blue girdle, upon which were represented 4 of the signs of the zodiack.
In his right hand a nose-gay, and in his left a censer, with incense burning.
On one side of him the sun just appearing above the horizon.
