Vampire is a 1916 oil by Edvard Munch, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Munch Museum.
The painting depicts a nude woman with long red hair, embracing a man whose face is obscured. The scene is set against a dark green background, with the couple positioned in the center of the canvas. The woman's body is rendered in warm tones, while the man's figure is depicted in cooler hues. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, with visible texture adding depth to the image. The overall mood of the painting is intimate and sensual, capturing a moment of tender connection between the two figures.
