More about this artwork

The painting "Bathing Woman and Children" by Edvard Munch presents a vivid and expressionistic view of figures in a water setting. Munch uses a bold and vibrant color palette that captures the essence of movement and the fluidity of water. The central figure, a woman, is depicted seated in the foreground, seemingly on a rock or a similar surface amidst the water. Her expression and posture suggest a moment of tranquility or introspection as she gazes outward.The background is filled with abstract representations of children playing, rendered in lighter, more ethereal forms that contrast with the solid presence of the woman. These figures appear to be engaged in joyful activity, evoking a sense of freedom and playfulness.Munch’s use of exaggerated colors and loose brushstrokes contributes to the impressionistic feel of the scene, emphasizing emotions and sensations over realistic depiction. The water and sky are portrayed with sweeping gestures of blues and greens intermingled with yellows and oranges, suggesting reflections and the interplay of light.The composition as a whole conveys a deeply personal and perhaps nostalgic reflection on youth and nature, typical of Munch’s exploration of psychological and emotional depth through his artworks.

Edvard Munch (12 December 1863 – 23 January 1944) was a Norwegian painter. His best known work, The Scream (1893), has become one of Western art's most iconic images.

His childhood was overshadowed by illness, bereavement and the dread of inheriting a mental condition that ran in the family. Studying at the Royal School of Art and Design in Kristiania (today's Oslo), Munch began to live a bohemian life under the influence of the nihilist Hans Jæger, who urged him to paint his own emotional and psychological state ('soul painting'); from this emerged his distinctive style.
