More from Edvard Munch
"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."
"I remained immobile trembling from anguish and I heard bounce through nature an immense infinite scream."
"The trees are like spectres, the sky is like a bleeding wound."
"The soul is like a vast, dark forest."
"I sense the presence of death everywhere."
About Edvard Munch (1863-1944)
Norwegian Expressionist painter whose The Scream (1893) became the iconic image of modern existential dread. Closely associated with James Ensor (Belgian Expressionist peer) and Egon Schiele (younger Expressionist heir). For an intellectual contrast, see Pierre-Auguste Renoir, French Impressionist (1841-1919) — Munch and Renoir were exact contemporaries painting the same Belle Époque from opposite emotional poles — Renoir's dappled-light bourgeois pleasure and Munch's anxiety-soaked bourgeois terror are the late-19th-century painting's two halves. The same world; the cleanest emotional inversion.
