Description

Oil on Canvas, 30"x 40" (1990)

Alive in death: a portrait of Dagny Juel-Przybyszewska (1867-1901), painter Edvard Munch's model for several works including the "Madonna". She was shot by a young lover in a hotel room in Tbilisi in 1901, 3 days before her 34th birthday.

I painted this when I was quite young and inexperienced, but despite the awkward hair, elbow, and chest areas, I still love looking at it.
