About the piece

Created in 1906 as part of the celebrated Reinhardt Frieze for the Deutsches Theater in Berlin, this tempera work captures a moment of communal labor with Edvard Munch's characteristic emotive style. The composition uses a muted, dreamlike palette of lavender, sage, and ochre to lend a sense of timeless rhythm to the pastoral subject.
