Yalta – night is a 1900 oil by Jan Ciągliński, held at National Museum in Warsaw.
The painting depicts a serene nighttime scene, with a small boat floating on the water. The boat is positioned in the center of the composition, with its reflection visible on the calm surface. In the background, a dark silhouette of a mountain or hill rises, set against a sky that transitions from a deep blue at the top to a lighter shade towards the horizon.
