Summer Night. The Voice is a 1898 oil by Edvard Munch, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Munch Museum.
In the painting, a woman with long brown hair stands in front of a window, wearing a blue dress with a white design on the chest. The background is a blue wall with a window and a brown frame. There are also some green leaves visible. The woman's face is blurred, and her eyes are cast downward. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet contemplation, with the woman lost in thought. This painting is reminiscent of the works of Edvard Munch, known for his expressive and emotive use of color and form.
