M U N C H Inger on the Beach, 1889 Inger Munch (1868-1952) was Edvard's youngest sister and only sibling to survive him. Besides painting several portraits of her, he often used her as a model in his earlier years. When first exhibited this picture provided another shock
for the Christiania art audience, who had never seen anything like it.
It is a mood painting, producing an effect of isolation and, although
an outdoor scene, confinement. The hard rocks stand around Inger like
jailers. Munch must have known the work of Courbet, in whose landscapes
rocks are often used to express the hardness of nature and provide a sort
of protective custody for the ego. Here the shut-in effect is increased
by tilting the sea upwards, thereby cutting out the horizon and sky. In
conjunction with the striking silhouette of the white figure, this flattens
the scene, anticipating Munch's symbolist paintings of the 1890s. In fact
the sea Inger's pose is very similar to that of the heroine of Morning , but where as that working-class girl responds to the strong light from the window, Inger receives no such external stimulus. She is bathed in the soft, diffused light of a Norwegian summer evening, lost in her own inner thoughts or memories. As already noted. Munch was prone to use stationary profile figures to represent timeless contemplation. |
