Two Women on the Shore (Frauen am Meeresufer) c. 1920s

Edvard Munch's "Two Women on the Shore" (c. 1920s) is a haunting lithograph that captures the artist's signature style of Expressionism. The work features two figures, seemingly cloaked in melancholy, set against a stark seascape. The woman in black is partially obscured, her face barely visible, creating an atmosphere of mystery and foreboding. The other woman, with her red hair, stands against the backdrop of a looming, blue cliff, evoking a sense of isolation and vulnerability. The woodcut's bold lines, expressive colors, and stark contrasts contribute to its emotional intensity, leaving a lasting impression on the viewer.
