Edvard Munch (1863-1944) "Love and Pain" (1895) Oil on canvas Expressionism Located in the Munch Museum, Oslo, Norway The painting shows a woman with long flame-red hair kissing a man on the neck, as the couple embrace. Although others have seen in it "a man locked in a vampire's tortured embrace – her molten-red hair running along his soft bare skin," Munch himself always claimed it showed nothing more than "just a woman kissing a man on the neck."

If it doesn't destroy you and left you in pain when it's over, then it wasn't love.

No longer shall I paint interiors with men reading and women knitting. I will paint living people who breathe and feel and suffer and love.

Edvard Munch
Love and Pain (1895)
This painting has come to be known as "Vampyre". Stanislaw Przybyszewski, critic and friend of Munch, described the painting as "a man who has become submissive, and on his neck a biting vampire's face". That was the first mention of a vampire regarding the painting. In 2008, Arifa Akbar, Arts Correspondant with The Independant, referred to it in this way " a man locked in a vampire's tortured embrace – her molten-red hair running along his soft bare skin."

Munch often created several versions of the same subject. In 1895 he created a woodcut that closely resembled Love and Pain.

Explaining one of VTMB paintings (pt 1)
Tumblr media
Love and Pain -1895 oil on canvas by Edvard Munch. 
Edvard Munch (December 12, 1863- January 23, 1944,) an Norwegian painter most famously known for his Expressionist work The Scream. He painted six versions of Love and Pain between 1893 and 1895. All show a (seemingly naked) woman with long red hair embracing a man as she gives him a kiss on the back of his neck. Munch himself always claimed it showed nothing more than "just a woman kissing a man on the neck"[1].While others have claimed to see a more violent version. The painting was first called Vampire by Munch's friend, the critic Stanisław Przybyszewski. Przybyszewski saw the painting on exhibition and described it as "a man who has become submissive, and on his neck a biting vampire's face."[2] Others fallowed suit and have called the painting Vampire or the Vampires Kiss and claimed to see sado-masochistic intentions for it. 
It shows up in multiple places in VTMB but most notable in Therese and Jeanette Voermans’ office, only this version of the painting has the woman’s hair being changed from red to neon blue color (see photo below) which was never used by Munch but probably done to make the painting stand out against the dark red wallpaper and low lighting used in the office.

Pain is the precipice of love and whilst it’s something that we hate, it’s such a beautiful thing.
