Edvard Munch's 'Man's Head in Woman's Hair', created in 1897, is a Symbolist portrait rendered in woodcut and watercolour. The work explores themes of human relationships and psychological states through its stark composition and melancholic figures.
Edvard Munch, a Norwegian painter and printmaker (1863-1944), is best known for his emotionally charged works that explored themes of anxiety, love, and death. A significant figure in the development of Expressionism, Munch's art often reflects his own personal struggles and psychological states. His innovative use of colour and distorted forms aimed to convey inner emotional experiences rather than objective reality. 'Man's Head in Woman's Hair', created in 1897, exemplifies Munch's Symbolist approach. The woodcut and watercolour on paper depicts a man's face partially obscured by a woman's flowing hair, set against a reddish-brown background. The faces are rendered with simplified features and a somewhat melancholic expression. The composition is stark and direct, focusing on the psychological relationship between the figures. The inscription 'SPEILET · ANDEN DEL 1897' appears at the top, adding a layer of enigmatic meaning. The work's raw emotionality and unconventional composition are characteristic of Munch's exploration of human relationships and psychological states.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
Edvard Munch
Lost his mother and sister to tuberculosis as a child, painted The Scream at thirty (the figure is hearing it, not making it), and left a thousand paintings to Oslo.
