"Das Kranke Mädchen" (The Sick Child) is a painting by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch, created in 1885-1886. The artwork is a poignant representation of illness and death, themes that pervade much of Munch's oeuvre, influenced by the early loss of his mother and sister to tuberculosis. The painting is considered one of Munch's early masterpieces and marks a departure from the more detailed and polished style of his academic training, moving towards the expressive brushwork and emotional intensity that would characterize his later work.

The painting depicts a young girl, her head resting on a pillow, with a grieving woman seated beside her, believed to be her mother. The figures are set against a muted interior, and the somber color palette underscores the painting's melancholic mood. Munch's use of loose brushstrokes and the blurred features of the figures convey a sense of turmoil and the fragility of life, capturing the emotional gravity of the scene rather than a literal representation.

"Das Kranke Mädchen" was met with mixed reactions when first exhibited, as its raw portrayal of suffering and the artist's unconventional technique challenged the artistic norms of the time. However, it has since been recognized as a significant work in Munch's body of art and a precursor to Expressionism. The painting has been revisited by Munch in several versions, reflecting his ongoing preoccupation with the themes of illness, loss, and human vulnerability. It remains an important work for its innovative approach to color, composition, and its profound psychological depth, encapsulating the human condition's existential aspects that Munch sought to express through his art.
