Women Harvesting Fruit
ca 1920
Most people know Edvard Munch for that screaming guy on the bridge, but here he's trading existential dread for a peaceful day in the orchard! Painted around 1920, this vibrant sketch shows a woman in a bright red blouse reaching up to harvest fruit from a swirling, dreamlike tree. The loose, scribbly lines and washes of blue and green make the whole scene feel like it's vibrating with energy, capturing the simple joy of rural life rather than the angst he's famous for.
