the girl by the window 1907

the girl by the window 1907Poster with the painting The Girl by the Window by Edvard Munch. The work was painted in 1893 and shows a woman standing by an open window and looking out over the city in the night light. She is wearing a white nightgown and her hair is in a bun. The language of color and form in this painting such as the steep angle of the floor and the deep shadows create an enigmatic scene. Loosely applied brown, purple and blue tones evoke a sense of melancholy

The school ship is either the Gladan or the Falken

In the background we see the Great Theatre

Malmö has had no natural deep harbor except for a small channel with a depth of two meters to the east of the older part of Malmö towards Kirseberget
