About Morning

The artwork titled “Morning” by Henri Fantin-Latour, associated with the Symbolism art movement, exemplifies the genre of nude painting (nu). Currently housed at La Piscine Museum in Roubaix, France, this piece reflects the nuanced and allegorical style characteristic of Symbolism.

The artwork portrays a nude female figure, who appears to be floating ethereally amidst a hazy, dreamlike setting. Her delicate form is bathed in soft light, enhancing the impression of tranquility and otherworldliness. The background is predominantly misty and amorphous, creating a serene and almost surreal ambiance. The figure’s posture, with arms raised and head tilted back, exudes a sense of peace and liberation, inviting viewers to contemplate the serene beauty of the morning as symbolized through this ethereal representation.
