Young girls and women His chief works show man as helpless, isolated, and tormented by emotions. Munch painted many portraits, especially of young girls and women. He also painted scenes of figures in landscape settings and made lithographs and woodcuts.

These works rank among the early examples of expressionism, an art form that attemps to convey man's inner feelings. Loten Munch was born on Loten, near Oslo. He lived in Paris from 1889 to 1892 and was influenced by the French artist Paul Gauguin. From 1892 to 1908, Munch lived chiefly in Germany.
