Edvard munch the scream pdf Continue Scream of 1910? Scream is undoubtedly Munch's most famous motif. It is part of a series of motifs that Munch developed in Berlin and Osgardstrand in the 1890s. Munch later gave the series the title of Frieze Life, and described this pictorial cycle as a poem about love, life and death. Munch has released several versions of The Scream. Two of these paintings where one belongs to the National Gallery in Oslo and the second at the Munch Museum.The Scream is based on the experience Munch had when he was walking with two friends in Ekebergesen on the outskirts of Christiania. He described his experience in several texts: I was walking with two friends - the sun was setting - suddenly the sky was flushed - I stopped feeling exhausted, and leaned toward the fence - there was blood and tongues of fire over the blue-black fjord and the city - my friends were moving on, and I stood there shivering with fear - and I felt an endless cry passing through nature. The cry was interpreted as a vision of the mind of a modern longing-ridden man for whom God is dead, and materialism is no consolation. The motif is constantly copied, caricatured and commercialized in many ways, and is undoubtedly one of the most famous motifs in the art world. The popularity she has gained demonstrates its versatility and shows how people are showing great interest in it, even today. 1.

The original German name given by Munch to his work was Der Schrei der Natur (Scream of Nature) and the Norwegian name Skrik (Shriek). The excruciating face in the painting has become one of the most iconic images of art, which symbolize the anxiety of the human condition. Munch recalled that he was on a walk at sunset when suddenly a setting of sunlight turned the clouds blood red. He felt an endless cry running through nature. Scientists have found a place for a fjord overlooking Oslo (59'54'02.4N 10'46'12.9E / 59.900667'N 10.770250'E / 59.900667; 10.770250), and offered other explanations of the unnatural orange sky, ranging from the effects of a volcanic eruption to Munch's psychological reaction to his sister's commitment to a nearby mad haven. Munch created two versions in paint and two in pastels, as well as a lithographic stone from which several engravings survive. Both painted versions were stolen but have since been restored. One of the pastel versions took the fourth place at the nominal price paid for the painting at a public auction. Sources of inspiration Edvard Munch, 1921 In his diary in the record led by Nice January 22, 1892, Munch wrote: One evening I walked along the path, the city was on one side and the fjord below. I felt tired and sick. I stopped and looked at the fjord - the sun was setting, and the clouds were blood red. I felt a cry coming through nature; I thought I heard a scream. I drew this picture, I painted the clouds like real blood. The color screamed. It became Scream. He later described his For the image: I was walking down the road with two friends - the sun was setting - suddenly the sky flushed - I stopped feeling exhausted, and leaned on the fence - there was blood and tongues of fire over the blue-black fjord and the city - my friends were walking on and I stood there trembling with anxiety - and I felt an endless cry passing through nature. Among the theories put forward to account for the reddish sky in the background is the artist's memory of the effects of the powerful eruption of the Krakatoa volcano, which deeply toned the sky red in parts of the Western Hemisphere for several months during 1883 and 1884, some ten years before Munch wrote Scream. This explanation was disputed by scientists, who note that Munch was an expressive artist and was not primarily interested in literal visualization of what he saw. Another explanation for the red sky is that they are associated with the appearance of pearl clouds that occur at the latitude of Norway and which look remarkably similar to the sky depicted in Scream.
