Pesta Kommer 1900

"Pesta Kommer" (1900) is a striking woodcut by Norwegian artist Theodor Kittelsen. The artwork depicts a solitary figure, cloaked in darkness, traversing a narrow, shadowy path between towering cliffs. The figure carries a long, crooked staff, adding to the sense of mystery and unease. Kittelsen's masterful use of light and shadow creates a haunting atmosphere, drawing viewers into the depths of the piece. The artwork's stark imagery and symbolic nature evoke a sense of loneliness and the unknown, making it a compelling example of Symbolist art.
