The Scream
by Edvard Munch
(Norwegian artist)
Edvard Munch painted The Scream in Norway in 1893. He wrote that he was out walking at sunset when the sky turned blood red, and he felt a great scream passing through nature. So the figure on the bridge may not be screaming at all. It's covering its ears against the scream all around it.
Munch made several versions, in paint, in pastel and as prints. Two of them have been stolen, in 1994 and 2004, and both were found again. Today it's one of the most copied pictures in the world, and that face shows up everywhere, even as an emoji.
