Description of the artwork

Year: 1891

This painting emblematic was created in 1891, under the changing sky of Oslo, formerly Christiania, while Munch, a leading figure of symbolism, explores the depths of the human soul. Through this canvas, which resides today at the Munch Museum, the artist conveys a poignant vision of the relationship between the individual and nature, while capturing the chaotic essence of his time.
Edvard Munch, who said: "Life is never celebrated without melancholy", drew his inspiration during a walk in the flowering woods, feeling a gentle melancholy emanating from nature. That morning, the light and scents of the flora led him to express, through this masterpiece, a vibrant and poetic impulse, capturing the ephemeral beauty of the moment.
In this canvas, Munch immerses us in a pastoral scene where human figures and rural landscape unite. The characters, enveloped by nature, try to find their place in this living tableau, where the tormented emotions of the artist blend with a powerful visual aesthetic, creating a disturbing harmony between man and his environment.
Considered one of the milestones of Munch's career, In the Open Air fits into a key moment of his artistic evolution. Echoing other works such as The Scream and The Madonna, this painting reveals Munch's ease in expressing intense emotions, while he evolves towards a richer and deeper style.
Munch skillfully uses various techniques to bring his canvas to life. Impastos and glazes overlap, offering a dazzling depth. Each brushstroke becomes a caress of light, while shadow and color dance together, highlighting the brutal and nuanced emotions of this fascinating painting.
Floral hues dominate, escorted by vibrant greens and soothing blues, each evoking unique feelings of serenity and nostalgia. The choice of colors, as well as their arrangement, transcends mere decor to enrich the soul of the painting, where each shade invites daydreaming.
The reproduction of In the Open Air is hand-painted on a museum-quality linen canvas, combining tradition and artisanal excellence. Each step of the realization requires about 40 hours, from the initial sketch to the final application of paint. The pigments used, such as Prussian blue and alizarin crimson, are chosen for their lasting brilliance. Thanks to a protective anti-UV varnish, this work is not simply a copy, but an authentic reflection, imbued with the emotion and genius of Munch.
