The Morning of Life by Samuel Palmer: Black and white image of a forest scene. A group of people, possibly children, are engaged in various activities. One person leads a pig by a rope. Another person holds a basket. The forest floor is littered with tree roots and branches. A large tree dominates the right side of the image. The sun shines through the trees from the top right corner. The image is highly detailed with many visible lines and textures. The scene is set on a slight incline. The image is framed by a light grey border. The artist's name is written in cursive at the bottom right corner. Some writing is present at the bottom left corner.
