"The Murderer" (German: "Der Mörder") is a notable painting by the German Symbolist artist Franz von Stuck, created in 1906. This work is emblematic of von Stuck's fascination with themes of sin, evil, and human psychology, which are recurrent throughout his oeuvre. The painting depicts a haunting scene in which a menacing figure, presumed to be the murderer, emerges from the darkness, his face illuminated by a sinister light that accentuates his malevolent expression.

Franz von Stuck, born in 1863 and passing in 1928, was a prominent figure in the Munich Secession movement and was known for his powerful and often unsettling imagery. His work often combined classical mythology with a dark, erotic aesthetic, and "The Murderer" is no exception. The painting's composition, with its stark contrasts of light and shadow, exemplifies von Stuck's mastery of mood and atmosphere, creating a palpable sense of dread.

"The Murderer" is a testament to von Stuck's ability to convey narrative and emotion through his art. The painting's subject matter reflects the artist's preoccupation with the darker aspects of the human condition and the fin-de-siècle society's preoccupation with decadence and the macabre. As with many of von Stuck's paintings, "The Murderer" invites viewers to contemplate the nature of evil and the psychological underpinnings of immoral acts.

The painting is held in high regard for its technical prowess and its evocative power, contributing to von Stuck's legacy as a significant figure in late 19th and early 20th-century art. It remains an important piece within Symbolist art and continues to be studied for its complex interplay of light, shadow, and psychological depth. "The Murderer" is housed in a collection or museum that preserves von Stuck's work, ensuring its accessibility to the public and scholars for appreciation and analysis.
