The preparatory sketches for the famous paintings ”Despair”, ”Melancholy” and ”Moonshine” are among the many drawings in this sketchbook which Munch used during an important period of his career. Around this time he went to the city of Nice on the French Riviera, and many of the café-motifs in the sketchbook are a result of this journey. The book also contains sketches for illustrations of Villhelm Krag’s “Digte”.
