Rue Lafayette 1891

"Rue Lafayette" is an 1891 painting by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch, known for his expressionist style. The painting depicts a figure looking out from a balcony at the busy street below. Munch’s unique brushstrokes and vibrant color palette create a sense of energy and movement, capturing the bustling atmosphere of the street. The figure’s isolation and the expansive view emphasize the themes of urban alienation and loneliness often explored in Munch's work.
