3. Edvard Munch
Munch hand-painted this poem
onto the frame of the 1895
pastel version of the work:
I was walking along the road
with two friends – the sun was
setting – suddenly the sky
turned blood red – I paused,
feeling exhausted, and leaned
on the fence – there was blood
and tongues of fire above the
blue-black fjord and the city –
my friends walked on, and I
stood there trembling with
anxiety – and I sensed an
infinite scream passing through
nature.
The Scream, 1893
