Jealousy (from The Green Room)

Munch often grouped his images into picture series. “The Green Room” (1907) is a cycle on love relationships consisting of seven paintings. The pictures engage the spectator, but the images do not create one story, but several stories. Manifesting a now characteristic multiplicity of stylistic approaches, Munch’s painting cycles continued to explore the motifs of The Frieze of Life, but with shifting emphases that began to accentuate group dynamics rather than individual relationships.
