Epstein's sculpture was inspired by John Milton's epic poem 'Paradise Lost' (1997). It represents the archangel Lucifer, bringer of light and most beautiful of all the angels. Lucifer dared to challenge the power of God and was subsequently cast into Hell.
Epstein shows Lucifer with his hands extended downwards towards the flames of Hell. He used a female model for the head of the sculpture and a male model for the body, giving the figure a deliberately ambiguous quality.
