One word which seems to convey the intended meaning is foreglow, which appears to describe precisely the glow of light appearing in the sky preceding sunrise. A cursory glance at the dictionary's definition of afterglow confirms that it is explicitly associated with the period after the sun has set. Although the term crepuscular light bears a similar connotation, it carries a slightly different nuance with a hint of technicality, especially in more specialized contexts.Īs discerning readers may have noted, numerous words in the English language refer to the colours of a sunset, but I have yet to discover a term which precisely conveys the same effervescent glow while alluding to a sunrise. On the other hand, gloaming (an exceptionally rare word) denotes a more subdued and faint light, while dusk implies a darker stage of twilight. I've observed that in the English language, there exist several terms denoting the luminous remnants of sunlight in the sky after the sun has set.įor instance, the term afterglow evokes a particularly effulgent quality of scattered sunlight after sunset.
