Two Human Beings. The Lonely Ones 1899

"Two Human Beings. The Lonely Ones" is a 1899 woodcut by Edvard Munch, a Norwegian artist who is known for his expressive and often melancholic portrayals of the human condition. The artwork depicts a man and a woman standing apart from each other in a landscape that is both beautiful and unsettling. Their isolation and the muted color palette contribute to the overall sense of loneliness and alienation. This work reflects the themes of isolation, despair, and existentialism that were prevalent in Munch’s art.
