Associated Names
Edvard Munch

Artist, Norwegian, 1863 - 1944

The image depicts a full-length figure of a woman seated and slightly turned to the side. Her head is tilted slightly forward, and her gaze is directed toward the viewer. The woman's facial features are delicately defined, and her long, dark hair falls naturally around her shoulders. She is unclothed and her arms are crossed over her lap. There is no visible jewelry or objects in her hands. The background is composed of dark shading and lines, suggesting a room or an interior space with a shadow extending on the left side. The artistic style is sketchy, focusing on contrast and outline rather than detailed textures.
