Early Morning is a 1900 oil by Frank Weston Benson, a American Impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
This painting shows a flock of ducks flying over a body of water. The ducks are in various poses, some with their wings spread wide, others with them tucked in. The water is choppy, with waves rippling across its surface. The colors are muted, with shades of gray and brown dominating the palette. The sky above is a soft, pale yellow. In the background, there are some dark shapes that could be trees or bushes. The painting has a serene, peaceful quality to it.
