Towards the Forest (The First Human Beings)

1896 ( plausible)
Watercolour, crayon, black
Wove paper. 302 × 500 × 0,21 mm (h × b × t)
Comment:
This drawing is not part of the series "The First Human Beings", which Munch created around 1895, but is linked to it by its motif, and was executed at about the same time, or possibly a little later. At the same time it has more in common with the woodcut "Towards the Forest I", which Munch executed in 1897.
