Munch’s Starry Night is an emotionally charged painting of the coastline in Asgardstrand, Norway, where the artist recalled falling in love. Feelings were an important component to Munch’s artistic practice, and he believed that his abstracted landscapes altered depending on who viewed them. For Munch, color was a particularly powerful tool to express emotions and psychological states. Upon first viewing, the painting appears monochromatic, a wash of blue where sky melts into shore. Further close looking and reflection reveals the nuances in shades and texture of the paint. It is a rich, layered canvas that provokes feelings and invites viewers to engage with their thoughts and memories.
