Vampire in the Forest is a 1924 oil by Edvard Munch, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Munch Museum.
The painting depicts a nude woman with long hair, sitting in a forest surrounded by trees and foliage. The woman's body is painted in shades of pink and white, while the background is a mix of greens and browns. The painting's style is expressive and loose, with visible brushstrokes and a focus on capturing the emotional state of the subject. The woman's face is not clearly visible, adding to the sense of mystery and intrigue. The use of bold colors and expressive brushstrokes creates a sense of tension and drama, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figure.
