"The First of September Morning; and The First of September Evening" are a pair of paintings by the English artist George Morland (1763–1804), created in the late 18th century. Morland, known for his naturalistic depictions of English rural life, often focused on the changing seasons and the activities associated with them. These works exemplify his interest in capturing the essence of the British countryside and its inhabitants' daily lives.

"The First of September Morning" portrays the early hours of the first day of September, traditionally the start of the partridge shooting season in England. It likely depicts sportsmen, accompanied by their dogs, setting out in anticipation of the hunt. The painting captures the crispness of the early morning air, the soft light of dawn, and the eager energy of both the hunters and their canine companions.

In contrast, "The First of September Evening" likely illustrates the end of the day's activities. This scene would typically show the sportsmen returning from the fields, possibly with their game, as the sun sets and the cool of the evening sets in. The painting would emphasize the tranquility of the evening and the satisfaction of the day's pursuits.

Together, these works offer a glimpse into the sporting culture of the period and reflect Morland's skill in rendering atmospheric effects and his empathetic portrayal of human and animal subjects. His ability to convey the mood and feeling of a particular moment in time makes these paintings enduring examples of British genre art.

Morland's paintings were widely reproduced as prints during his lifetime, contributing to his popularity. "The First of September Morning; and The First of September Evening" would have appealed to the sensibilities of Georgian England, where there was a growing appreciation for the beauty of the natural landscape and a romanticized view of rural life.

As with many of Morland's paintings, these works are significant for their contribution to the genre of landscape and genre painting in British art. They reflect the social and cultural interests of the time and offer insight into the leisure activities of the British gentry. The paintings are held in private collections or museums, and they continue to be studied for their artistic and historical value.
