Munch – Moonlight (1896) | Symbolist Woodcut Print

Pale elongated face emerges from deep blue shadows, moonlight casting an ethereal glow against dark vertical lines suggesting a forest at night

This haunting woodcut demonstrates Munch’s mastery of the medium, using bold contrasts between the luminous face and oppressive darkness to evoke psychological tension. The figure’s ghostly pallor against the nocturnal forest setting reflects his recurring exploration of isolation and inner turmoil during his Berlin period.
