Children on the Street is a 1906 oil by Edvard Munch, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Munch Museum.
The painting depicts a group of children standing in the middle of a road, surrounded by trees and a grassy area. The scene is set in a landscape with a winding road that curves to the right. The children are dressed in various colors, with some wearing red, yellow, and blue clothing. They appear to be engaged in conversation or play, adding a sense of movement and energy to the scene. The trees and grassy area provide a natural backdrop, with the road serving as a focal point. The use of oil paint and the artist's brushwork give the painting a textured, almost three-dimensional quality. The overall effect is one of a serene and peaceful scene, inviting the viewer to step into the world of the painting.
