Two Women at the Table is a 1915 charcoal by Edvard Munch, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Munch Museum.
This painting features two women seated at a table, with the woman on the left wearing a white dress adorned with green accents. Her right elbow rests on the table, and her chin is supported by her right hand. The woman on the right is dressed in a green garment, and her head is covered by a white and purple headscarf. She sits with her back to the viewer. The women are depicted in a sketchy, unfinished style, with visible brushstrokes and a muted color palette. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the women are lost in thought. For more information on the artist's work, explore the art of Edvard Munch.
