The Infirmary at Helgelandsmoen is a 1892 oil by Edvard Munch, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Munch Museum.
This painting depicts a somber interior scene, with several people lying on beds. The room is dimly lit, with a red ceiling and a wooden structure in the background. The atmosphere is subdued, with muted colors dominating the palette. In the foreground, a man sits on a bed, while others lie down, some with their heads covered. The overall mood is one of quiet contemplation, with the subjects seemingly lost in thought. The artist's use of muted colors and soft brushstrokes adds to the sense of serenity.
