Allegorical painting of the morning light according to the Book of Proverbs 4:18: "But the path of the righteous is like a bright light that spreads and shines until the true day." Morning glory runs through the countryside to the crowing of a rooster, carrying an hourglass and a horse's spur in her hands.
