Morning. Nude at the Window

Morning. Nude at the Window from 1902 belongs to Munch's recurrent engagement with the female nude in interior settings, specifically here the combination of the nude figure and the window — the transition between the private world of the body and the public world outside. The morning nude at the window combined the vulnerability of undress with the act of looking outward, a pose that raised questions about visibility, exposure, and the relationship between private and public identity. The work's current location is untraced, suggesting private ownership or institutional holdings not yet fully digitized.

Munch places the nude figure at the window in a composition that uses the window's strong rectangular frame and the contrast between interior and exterior light as its primary structural elements. The nude figure is rendered in warm flesh tones against the cooler light source of the window behind or beside her.
