Kriebstein Castle at Zschoppau in Saxony. Morning is a 1838 oil by Johann Hermann Carmiencke, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a castle on a hill, surrounded by trees and mountains. The castle has many windows and a tall tower with a spire. In the foreground, there's a path leading up to the castle, with a person walking on it. The sky is light, suggesting it's morning. The castle looks old and strong, with thick walls and a large gate. The trees around it are green, and the mountains in the background are hazy. The painting is done in oil paint, which gives it a rich, detailed look.
