"The Great Morning" (German: "Der große Morgen") is a renowned work by German Romantic artist Philipp Otto Runge, created between 1809 and 1810. This piece is part of a series of four times of day, which also includes "The Small Morning," "The Great Day," and "The Small Day." Runge's ambitious project aimed to represent different times of the day as an allegory for the stages of human life, from birth to death, and to reflect the unity of nature and the divine.

"The Great Morning" is characterized by its symbolic and visionary approach, which was a hallmark of Romanticism, an artistic movement that emphasized emotion, nature, and the sublime. Runge's use of light and color in this work is particularly noteworthy, as he sought to capture the ethereal quality of morning light and its spiritual significance. The painting depicts a landscape at dawn, filled with a sense of awakening and renewal. The composition is imbued with a mystical atmosphere, where the natural elements seem to be in a harmonious dialogue, suggesting the interconnectedness of all life.

Runge's innovative approach to color and form was influenced by his interest in color theory and the writings of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. "The Great Morning" reflects Runge's deep engagement with philosophical and theological ideas, as he endeavored to express through art the unity of God, nature, and humanity. The work is also notable for its technical execution, with Runge's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to convey texture and luminosity.

Although "The Great Morning" and the series to which it belongs were not completed to Runge's full satisfaction before his untimely death in 1810, the existing works stand as a testament to his visionary artistic goals. "The Great Morning" is considered a masterpiece of early German Romanticism and remains an influential piece in the study of Romantic art and its spiritual and aesthetic aspirations. The painting is held in high regard for its contribution to the development of symbolism and for prefiguring later movements that sought to explore the spiritual in art.
