Public domain art from The Rijksmuseum, digitally enhanced in high resolution. Lithograph printed in yellow, red and green.

'The Sin' as initially believed to be an image of Edvard Munch's ex-fiancée, Tulla Larsen, thus evoking their often tumultuous relationship. However, the emerald-eyed temptress of this dramatic lithograph has been identified instead as a professional model who posed regularly for the artist in his Berlin studio.

Like many of Munch's images of women, she follows the popular fin-de-siècle trope of the femme fatale with her long tresses, blank stare, and full breasts enticing the male gaze, yet also connoting the potential for danger. The image makes reference to the Symbolist painter Franz von Stuck's celebrated 1893 painting 'The Sin', which depicts a figure in the same position and state of undress as in the Munch, but with dark hair and a large serpent wrapped around her torso.

An undisputed master of the print medium, Munch (1863-1944) made no fewer than 800 prints during his prolific career. His subjects were limited, however, to a smaller number of powerful images that he continually reworked in etching, lithography, and woodcut. His keen interest in technical experimentation, coupled with his use of simplified forms and expressionistic color, position him as an important progenitor of Modernism.

CLICK FOR TIPS

When buying artworks figure out what you like. If you're just buying something you love, it's not difficult to make a decision!

If you hang an artwork at home and it doesn’t feel right, move it. Try putting it in different places, and see if it strikes an interesting dialogue with other works on your wall. Smaller artworks often work well near light switches, or hung low over a small piece of furniture like a bedside table.

Grouping works together can be really effective. Test out a group of frames by arranging them on the floor or a table top. If you’re feeling pro, use masking tape to mark out your very own tightly packed grouping!

Understand that size does matter. You can track your purchase. Explore with Vireous Shop!
