Separation is a 1906 tempera by Edvard Munch, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Munch Museum.
This painting, titled Separation, depicts a figure in a long, dark coat and hat, standing against a wall. The figure's face is blurred, and its hands are clasped together. The background is a mix of beige, green, and red hues, with abstract shapes and lines. The figure appears to be in a state of contemplation or sadness, with its head bowed and eyes cast downward. The use of tempera as the medium adds a sense of texture and depth to the painting. To learn more about the artist's use of tempera, explore the technique of tempera.
