Man's Head in Woman's Hair

The area of the heads has been cut out of the sheet on which the woodcut was printed and has been mounted on a backing, the same dark brown paper onto which Munch mounted impressions of his other woodcuts and lithographs for exhibition as a series, "The Mirror." In this case, a rough rectangle has been painted in red ('vermillion' and 'lake') behind the collage element, and a title written above, as a mockup of a poster for the exhibition. The collection also holds an impression of the poster (M21549).
