"Morning" is a notable work by the English artist William Hogarth, created in 1738 as part of his series of paintings and engravings titled "The Four Times of the Day." Hogarth, renowned for his satirical and moralistic works, captures in "Morning" the beginning of a day in London, offering a vivid portrayal of the social fabric of his time through meticulous observation and a keen eye for detail.

The painting is set in Covent Garden, a popular market area in London, depicted in the cold light of dawn. It portrays a range of characters and activities, highlighting the bustling life of the city as it awakens. The central figure, a shabbily dressed woman, possibly a prostitute, makes her way home, embodying the moral decay Hogarth saw in London society. In contrast, a group of devout parishioners is shown heading to St. Paul's Church, illustrating the juxtaposition of vice and virtue, a recurrent theme in Hogarth's work.

"Morning" is characterized by its attention to the effects of light and shadow, capturing the chill of an early London morning, and is rich in detail and symbolism. The architectural elements, including the recognizable portico of Inigo Jones's St. Paul's Church, not only situate the scene geographically but also add to the narrative depth, hinting at the societal structures Hogarth critiqued.

As the first in the "The Four Times of the Day" series, "Morning" sets the stage for a day in the life of London, leading into "Noon," "Evening," and "Night," each exploring different aspects of urban life and moral commentary. Together, these works offer a comprehensive and critical portrayal of 18th-century London society, showcasing Hogarth's skill as both an artist and a social commentator.

"Morning" and the rest of the series were well-received in Hogarth's time and remain significant in the study of British art and social history. The series highlights Hogarth's innovative approach to narrative in art, his mastery of engraving and painting, and his profound influence on the development of satirical art. Today, "Morning" is celebrated not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical significance, providing insight into the complexities of 18th-century London life.
