The Women on the Bridge

"The Women on the Bridge", painted in 1903 by Edvard Munch, invites us to contemplate a fleeting moment shared by a group of women. This large-scale painting, measuring 2.3 meters wide and 2.03 meters tall, draws our attention to the interplay of light and shadow, the expressive brushstrokes, and the enigmatic figures that populate the canvas. Munch masterfully captures the ambiance of twilight, with the moon casting a gentle glow upon the water below and subtly illuminating the figures. The Thiel Gallery, where this masterpiece is housed, provides a fitting setting to experience the evocative power of Munch's art.
