Portrait of a Young Girl (Miss Heiberg?)

Edvard Munch, Norges Geografiske Oppmåling, Otto Felsing · 1895 · drypoint ·  Accession ID  1944.14.56

Printed with black lines and gray tones, one person wraps their arms around the shoulders of another person, who holds both hands to their face in this horizontal aquatint and drypoint. Both are nude. The person covering their face has long hair that drapes heavily over her head and shoulders and reaches her hips. She kneels and faces us, her face entirely hidden by her hands. The other person, to our right, has short hair and is angled away from us. A dark, rounded form nearly fills the left third of the composition. The wall behind the pair is patterned with faint, diamond shapes. The artist inscribed the print under the lower left corner and signed the bottom right in graphite. The only fully legible text is his name, “Edw. Munch.”
