The artwork named “Morning” was created by Caspar David Friedrich in 1821. This painting, which belongs to the Romanticism art movement, is a landscape genre piece. It is currently housed in the Lower Saxony State Museum in Hanover, Germany.
The artwork portrays a serene and misty morning scene. In the foreground, there is a gently flowing river with a solitary boat and a person rowing. The riverbank is adorned with lush greenery and scattered rocks. In the background, tall evergreens rise majestically, partially shrouded in morning mist. The hills further beyond give a sense of depth and tranquility. The sky above transitions from subtle pink hues to a soft yellow, hinting at the gentle rise of dawn. The overall composition evokes a serene and contemplative ambiance, characteristic of Friedrich’s romantic landscapes.
