A fitting image for anniversaries or Valentine’s Day, this work captures passion not as spectacle, but as surrender. Two figures dissolve into one another - faces blurred, bodies cloaked in shadow - as if union eclipses everything else. Munch’s signature psychological tension lingers, but here it yields to intimacy: a moment suspended between ecstasy and disappearance.
