The Cat (Die Katze) 1897

"The Cat" (Die Katze), a lithograph by Edvard Munch from 1897, depicts a woman lying on her back with a man's head near her. The woman's long hair cascades around her face, and the man's face is obscured by a shadow, leaving only his beard visible. A small cat is lying near the couple. The simple lines and expressive gestures of the artwork are characteristic of Munch's style, which often explored themes of love, death, and anxiety. This piece, with its haunting atmosphere and symbolic imagery, reflects Munch's interest in psychological states and the complexities of human relationships.
