Summer Night (The Voice) is a 1895 by Edvard Munch, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a lone figure standing between two tall, narrow columns. The person wears a loose dress and a wide-brimmed hat, their face turned slightly upward. The background is mostly blank, with just a hint of a doorway or window behind them. The drawing feels unfinished, like a quick study rather than a polished work. The lines are loose and expressive, giving the figure a quiet, almost dreamy presence. Next, check out Edvard Munch to see how he explored similar themes in other sketches.
Edvard Munch ( MUUNK; Norwegian: ; 12 December 1863 – 23 January 1944) was a Norwegian painter.
