"Døgnets tider. Symboliseret ved fire vingede skikkelser" (The Hours of the Day. Symbolized by Four Winged Figures) is a 1794 bas-relief sculpture by Danish Neoclassical artist Bertel Thorvaldsen. The work features four figures representing the hours of the day: Morning, Noon, Afternoon, and Evening. The sculpture's dynamic composition, with the figures in motion, embodies the passage of time. The work, currently housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, exemplifies Thorvaldsen's mastery of classical form and his ability to imbue his subjects with a sense of life and emotion.
