"The Sick Child" (Schiefler 7; Woll 7) is a seminal artwork by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch, created in 1885-1886. This piece marks a pivotal moment in Munch's career, embodying a profound emotional depth and a departure from the more traditional painting styles of his era. The artwork is rooted in personal tragedy, drawing from Munch's own experiences with illness and death within his family, most notably the death of his sister Johanne Sophie from tuberculosis at a young age. This event had a profound impact on Munch, influencing much of his later work.

The painting is characterized by its expressive use of color, loose brushwork, and its ability to convey deep emotional resonance. Munch's depiction of the sick child, with her anguished expression and the comforting presence of a figure beside her, believed to be her mother, captures a moment of intense emotional and physical suffering. The artwork's somber palette and the ethereal, almost ghostly, rendering of the figures contribute to its haunting quality.

"The Sick Child" stands as a testament to Munch's innovative approach to expressionism, a movement that sought to convey the underlying psychological and emotional states of its subjects. This work, in particular, is often cited as a precursor to Munch's later, more famous pieces, including "The Scream." It represents a significant departure from the naturalistic representation of the time, moving towards a more symbolic and emotionally charged depiction of human experience.

Over the years, Munch revisited the theme of "The Sick Child" multiple times, creating several versions in various media, including painting and lithography. This iterative process underscores the work's personal significance to the artist and its central place in his oeuvre. Today, "The Sick Child" is celebrated for its groundbreaking approach to expression and emotion in art, marking a significant moment in the transition towards modernist art practices. It remains a key work for understanding Munch's artistic evolution and the broader trends in European art at the turn of the 20th century.
