"Melancholy II" (also known as "Melancholy III") is an evocative artwork by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch, created in 1902. This piece is part of a series that explores the theme of melancholy, a subject Munch returned to several times throughout his career. The series includes paintings and prints that reflect the artist's preoccupation with human emotion and psychological states.

The artwork depicts a man resting his head on his hand in a pensive pose, often interpreted as a portrayal of existential sorrow or deep contemplation. The figure is believed to be based on the poet Jappe Nilssen, a friend of Munch's, who is seated on the shore of a beach. The background features a seascape, which may symbolize the vast and overwhelming nature of the emotions being conveyed.

"Melancholy II" is rendered in Munch's distinctive style, characterized by bold brushstrokes and a muted color palette that enhances the somber mood of the piece. The composition and use of color are instrumental in conveying the sense of isolation and introspection that is central to the work.

This artwork is significant in the context of Munch's oeuvre as it exemplifies his exploration of psychological themes and his ability to capture complex emotional states. "Melancholy II" is also an important work within the Symbolist movement, of which Munch was a key figure, as it embodies the movement's focus on depicting the ideas and emotions that lie beneath the surface of reality.

"Melancholy II" is housed in the Munch Museum in Oslo, Norway, which holds one of the most extensive collections of Munch's works. The painting continues to be a subject of study and admiration for its poignant representation of human emotion and its place within the broader narrative of European art at the turn of the 20th century.
