Early Morning
by PALMER, Samuel, Pen and ink and wash, mixed with gum arabic, varnished, 188 x 232 mm
In Early Morning, the sense of a new beginning, of spiritual rebirth, is made manifest through the rabbit climbing a sunlit path, and by the figures embowered by corn who have come out to hear the dawn chorus.
