Description of the artwork
Work: Ebba Ridderstad
Artist: Edvard Munch
Year: 1935
Museum: Munch Museum
Dimensions: 72.5 x 100 cm
Major Exhibitions: Edvard Munch: portraits
This painting is emblematic and was created in 1935, in Oslo, a city vibrant with creativity and artistic experimentation. The painting is part of the expressionist movement, characterized by a deep exploration of human emotions and a bold use of color. Currently exhibited at the Munch Museum, this canvas of 72.5 x 100 cm stands out for its narrative and visual intensity.
Munch is said to have declared: “True painting begins where words end.” It was a spring morning in Norway, among the shifting shadows of a cloudy sky, that he is said to have crossed the gaze of Ebba Ridderstad, an iconic figure of his time. This fleeting and mysterious moment fuels the emotional strength of Ebba Ridderstad, leaving in the air a scent of melancholy and beauty.
In this pictorial work, Munch captures the very essence of femininity through the introspective gaze of Ebba Ridderstad. The painting does not merely represent a figure; it evokes an entire inner world, making palpable the emotions and thoughts of the model, suspended in time and space.
This canvas is part of a mature phase of Munch, where he develops a more nuanced approach to his characters. By comparing it to works such as "The Scream" and "The Madonna," one observes a stylistic evolution marked by an increased representation of moods and inner turmoil.
Using glazes and impastos, Munch constructs a palpable emotional depth in Ebba Ridderstad. Each layer of paint reveals nuances of light, skillfully playing with transparency and texture to enhance the soul of the canvas. His brushstroke expresses a fluid movement, inviting the viewer to feel the intensity of the emotions that emanate from it.
The vibrant colors of this painting are organized into delicate harmonies, where each hue seems to resonate powerfully. The deep reds and blues evoke nostalgia and passion, while the touches of light bring a revealing clarity, sculpting the soul of the canvas and immersing us in a world rich in emotions.
The reproduction of this painting is done on museum-quality linen canvas, using meticulous artisanal techniques. Each sketch is hand-done, followed by successive layers of paint, using high-end pigments such as Prussian blue and alizarin crimson. Each step, about 40 hours of work, reflects a commitment to fidelity to the original work and to Munch's artistic movement.
This painting is not just a simple copy; it embodies a second work, ready to convey the passion and emotion present in the masterpiece original through a protective UV varnish, offering durability and brilliance to the colors.
