Sir Alfred James Munnings
December Morning, Cornwall

Circa 1913

About the Item

Painted during Munnings’s pre-war stay in Cornwall, December Morning is a celebration of the great artist’s skill as a colourist. The first painter to note that a horse’s coat reflects the colour of its surroundings, Munnings masterfully bathes his subject in the blue and orange highlights of the morning. One of the artist’s few works depicting the horse ‘head on’, December Morning shows Munnings’s understanding of light and tone at its very best.
