EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating artwork "Morning, 1807-08" by Philipp Otto Runge transports viewers to a serene and ethereal world. This exquisite print, created with pencil and wash on paper, showcases the artist's remarkable talent in capturing the essence of time and femininity. In this piece from his renowned series "The Times of Day". Runge depicts a beautiful female figure representing the break of dawn. The woman stands gracefully amidst a backdrop of soft hues, her long hair flowing freely as if touched by gentle morning breezes. A cherubic putto hovers nearby, symbolizing innocence and purity. At the center of attention lies an angelic infant cradled in the woman's arms. This depiction alludes to rebirth and new beginnings associated with each sunrise. As if bestowing blessings upon humanity, she holds a cornucopia overflowing with abundance—a reminder that every day brings fresh opportunities. Runge's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his pencil; he masterfully captures light and shadow to create depth within this enchanting scene. The delicate balance between realism and dreamlike qualities makes this artwork truly mesmerizing. Displayed at Hamburg's Hamburger Kunsthalle museum in Germany, this timeless masterpiece continues to inspire awe centuries after its creation. It serves as a testament to Runge's artistic genius and his ability to evoke emotions through his drawings.
