"Sin I" (also known as "Sin" or "Die Sünde") is a notable work by the German painter Franz von Stuck, created in 1893 during the Symbolist period, which was characterized by its emphasis on emotions, feelings, ideas, and the subjective interpretation of reality. This painting is one of von Stuck's most famous and is emblematic of his fascination with themes of temptation, evil, and the femme fatale—a common motif in Symbolist art.

The painting depicts a seductive, almost menacing female figure, enveloped in a dark, flowing cloak that contrasts with her pale skin and luminous, fiery red hair. Her direct gaze and the sensuous curve of her bare shoulder evoke a sense of both allure and danger, embodying the concept of sin as an enticing yet perilous force. The figure is often interpreted as a representation of the biblical Eve or a general symbol of temptation and the fall of man, reflecting the Symbolist interest in mythological and religious narratives.

"Sin I" showcases von Stuck's masterful use of color and light to create mood and convey symbolic meaning. The limited palette and the interplay of light and shadow contribute to the painting's dramatic and enigmatic quality. The work's composition, with its central figure set against a nondescript, dark background, focuses the viewer's attention on the psychological intensity of the subject.

Franz von Stuck's "Sin I" has been widely discussed in the context of both Symbolist art and the broader fin-de-siècle cultural milieu, in which themes of decadence, eroticism, and the duality of human nature were prevalent. The painting is held in high regard for its powerful visual impact and its ability to encapsulate the anxieties and preoccupations of its time. It remains a significant piece in the oeuvre of Franz von Stuck and continues to be studied and exhibited as a key example of late 19th-century Symbolist painting.
