"Battle for a Woman" (German: "Kampf um eine Frau") is a painting created in 1905 by the German Symbolist artist Franz von Stuck. Known for his evocative and often provocative works, von Stuck was a prominent figure in the Munich Secession movement and a co-founder of the Munich Secession in 1892. His oeuvre frequently explores themes of mythology, sensuality, and the darker aspects of human nature, and "Battle for a Woman" is no exception.

The painting depicts a dramatic and intense scene, characteristic of von Stuck's fascination with mythological and allegorical subjects. It portrays two male figures engaged in a fierce struggle over a woman, who stands as the central focus of the composition. The woman's expression and posture convey a sense of distress and helplessness, emphasizing her role as the object of desire and conflict. The male figures, rendered with muscular physiques and dynamic poses, embody the primal and violent aspects of human nature.

Von Stuck's use of chiaroscuro—contrasting light and dark—enhances the dramatic tension of the scene. The dark, almost monochromatic palette, punctuated by the luminous skin tones of the figures, creates a stark and powerful visual impact. The artist's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to convey emotion through body language and facial expressions are evident in this work.

"Battle for a Woman" reflects von Stuck's interest in exploring the complexities of human relationships and the often-destructive nature of desire. The painting can be interpreted as a commentary on the objectification of women and the societal norms that perpetuate such conflicts. It also aligns with the Symbolist movement's broader themes of exploring the subconscious and the darker aspects of the human psyche.

Today, "Battle for a Woman" is recognized as a significant example of Franz von Stuck's artistic legacy and his contribution to early 20th-century art. The painting continues to be studied and appreciated for its technical mastery and its provocative exploration of timeless human themes.
