Official reproduction of Edvard Munch's work Weeping Nude, (1913-1914) from MUNCH's collection.
Weeping Nude (1913–14) is a deeply expressive and emotionally charged painting by Edvard Munch, showcasing his mastery in blending bold color contrasts with raw human emotion. The painting depicts a nude woman kneeling on a bed, her head buried in her hands as she weeps, creating a powerful sense of vulnerability and inner turmoil.
The composition is dominated by saturated tones of carmine and cinnabar red, which cascade across the bedspread like a torrent of emotion. These rich colors are juxtaposed with softer shades of pink, blue-green, and yellow, adding depth and complexity to the scene. The woman’s bowed posture, combined with the fluid, almost chaotic brushstrokes, evokes a sense of physical and emotional release, mirroring the agitated ocean suggested in the background.
This painting reflects Munch’s fascination with the human form as a vessel for emotional expression. The model, likely Ingeborg Kaurin, a recurring figure in Munch’s work, is depicted with loose, dynamic contours that blur the line between figure and setting. Her pose recalls themes from other works, such as Melancholy and Weeping Woman on the Beach, underscoring Munch’s exploration of grief and introspection.
With its dramatic color palette and intense emotional resonance, Weeping Nude captures the complexity of human vulnerability, making it a profound testament to Munch’s ability to convey the depths of the human psyche.
