Morning on the Riesengebirge (German - Morgen im Riesengebirge) is an 1810–1811 painting by the German Romantic artist Caspar David Friedrich of a scene on the Riesengebirge. It was exhibited at the Dresden Academy, where it attracted significant public attention.[1] The painting was then acquired in 1811 by Frederick William III of Prussia for Unter den Linden, his Berlin palace, where it remained until 1837, when it was moved to the New Palace in Potsdam.[citation needed]

From 1844 to 1865 it was exhibited in the Schloss Bellevue then later in the castle at Wiesbaden. After 1930, it was moved back to Berlin, where it was displayed in the Stadtschloss. In 1957, it was moved to Schloss Charlottenburg (with inventory number 6911 GK I) as the property of the Prussian State Museums (inventory number NG 10/85).[citation needed]

The painting blends a mixture of religious allegory and Friedrich's distinctive approach to landscape painting, which made the work popular in his time.
