Nude with Red Skirt is a 1902 oil by Edvard Munch, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Munch Museum.
The painting depicts a woman standing in front of a dark green wall, wearing a red skirt and a white blouse. Her back is turned to the viewer, and she is holding a dark blue object. The woman's hair is pulled back, and her arms are extended as if she is about to put on the object. The painting is done in oil paint, with visible brushstrokes and a focus on bold colors. The woman's pose and the use of color create a sense of intimacy and vulnerability. The dark green wall behind her adds a sense of depth and contrast to the painting. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the woman is lost in thought.
