"De Ensomme" (English: "The Lonely Ones") is a woodcut print created by the renowned Norwegian artist Edvard Munch, who is best known for his iconic work "The Scream." Created in 1899, "De Ensomme" reflects Munch's preoccupation with themes of love, anxiety, loneliness, and existential contemplation, which are recurrent throughout his oeuvre. The print depicts two figures, a man and a woman, standing apart on the shore against a vast, open sea, symbolizing the emotional distance and isolation that can exist between individuals, even in close proximity.

The composition of "De Ensomme" is characterized by its stark simplicity and the use of bold lines, which is typical of Munch's woodcuts from this period. The figures are rendered in a manner that emphasizes their separation and the emotional barrier between them, with the expanse of the sea serving as a metaphor for the emotional gulf that lies in their midst. The work is part of Munch's broader exploration of the human psyche and the complex interplay of emotions within personal relationships.

"De Ensomme" is considered an important work in Munch's graphic oeuvre and is exemplary of his innovative approach to the woodcut medium. Munch's technique involved sawing the woodblock into pieces and inking each section separately before reassembling them to create the final print, a method that allowed for greater color variation and an expressive use of line. This print has been exhibited in various art institutions worldwide and is held in several prominent collections, contributing to our understanding of Munch's artistic legacy and the evolution of printmaking in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

As with many of Munch's works, "De Ensomme" has been subject to various interpretations, with scholars often considering it within the context of Munch's own turbulent personal life and the broader Symbolist movement, which sought to express the more emotional and mystical aspects of the human experience. The print remains a poignant representation of the universal human experience of loneliness and the search for connection.
