''The Kiss'' is an oil painting on canvas completed by the Norwegian symbolist artist Edvard Munch in 1897. Part of his ''Frieze of Life'', which depicts the stages of a relationship between men and women, ''The Kiss'' is a realization of a motif with which he had experimented since 1888/89: a couple kissing, their faces fusing as one in a symbolic representation of their unity. Exhibited as early as 1903, this work is held at the Munch Museum in Oslo. ==Description== ''The Kiss'' is an oil painting on canvas, measuring . It depicts a couple surrounded by darkness, with only a sliver of daylight showing through a window which is mostly covered by a curtain. They hold an embrace as they seemingly merge into one, their faces a single, featureless shape. Art critic Roberta Smith notes that Munch favored "long, somewhat slurpy brush strokes that were more stained than painted". The painting is similar to, though simpler than, another work with the same theme Munch produced in the same period.
