About the piece

Created in 1906, this tempera painting by Edvard Munch served as a conceptual set design for Henrik Ibsen's play "Ghosts." The work captures a somber, interior atmosphere through Munch's characteristic expressive linework and muted, earthy tones, reflecting the psychological tension of the theatrical drama.
