Description of the artwork
Work: Marat au bain et Charlotte Corday
Artist: Edvard Munch
Year: 1930
Museum: Munch Museum
Dimensions: 120.5 x 80.5 cm
Created in 1930, this painting is set in a rich and troubled context, typical of the interwar years in Europe. Edvard Munch, master of symbolism and expressionism, created this iconic painting at the Munch Museum, located in Oslo, Norway. This painting recounts a dramatic moment in history, while the dimensions of 120.5 x 80.5 cm capture the emotional intensity of this pictorial work.
“I paint dreams, and art is my breath,” said Munch, one sunny morning in his studio filled with vibrant colors. It is in this intimate space that he found inspiration for this masterpiece, a symbolic interpretation of the tragic conflict between Marat and Corday, dictated by palpable tension.
This painting depicts the famous scene of the death of Jean-Paul Marat, stabbed by Charlotte Corday, a key figure of the French Revolution. By blending the real and the symbolic, Munch dramatizes the ultimate confrontation between ideal and despair, each gesture and gaze on the canvas tells a story of heightened human passions.
The painting “Marat au bain et Charlotte Corday” marks a turning point in Munch's career, oscillating between his promising beginnings and the stylistic peaks he would later reach. Alongside other paintings like “The Scream” and “The Madonna,” this work illustrates the evolution of his emotional approach, a balance between melancholy and pain.
Munch employed glazing and impasto techniques, carefully layering each coat of paint to create unparalleled depth in this canvas. The brushwork conveys the intensity of emotions, illuminating shadows and accentuating the tension of the faces, each stroke testifying to a burning passion.
The dominant hues, a mix of bright reds and soothing blues, evoke inner struggle and tragedy. Each color in this painting carries an emotion: the warmth of crimson red evokes anger, while the peaceful blue embodies resigned pain. The vibrant contrasts sculpt the soul of the canvas, inviting the viewer to feel every nuance.
Each reproduction is handmade, in oil paint on museum-quality linen canvas, respecting the original proportions and style of Edvard Munch. Through a manual sketch and successive layers of high-quality pigments such as Prussian blue and alizarin crimson, every detail is captured. In this reproduction, over 40 hours of work are dedicated to conveying the emotion of the original masterpiece, each precise gesture of the copyist artists respecting the soul of the canvas.
Finished with a protective UV varnish, this canvas is designed to be durable and vibrant, ready to tell endless stories. This reproduction of “Marat au bain et Charlotte Corday” is not just a simple copy, but a work that is alive and faithful, retransmitting the emotion of the original art.
