The Scream

Edvard Munch
Background
Basically The Scream is personal, an expressionistic development in
view of Munch's genuine encounter of a shout penetrating through
nature while on a stroll, after his two colleagues, found behind the
scenes, had left him. The Scream is part of a series of paintings that
Munch was to call The Frieze of Life. The pictures are tied togheter in
terms of subject matter and form, and focus on existential topics
such as love, pain, anxiety, jealousy and death. Fitting the fact that
the sound must have been heard at a time when his mind was in an
abnormal state, Munch renders it in a style which if pushed to
extremes can destroy human integrity. As previously noted, the
flowing curves of art nouveau represent a subjective linear fusion
imposed upon nature, whereby the multiplicity of particulars is
unified into a totality of organic suggestion with feminine overtones.
But man is part of nature, and absorption into such a totality
liquidates the individual.

Ways of presenting the
subject
Symbolist painters accepted that craftsmanship ought to reflect feelings or thoughts rather than
simple portrayals of the normal world. Munch's strongly private style is regularly alluded to as
Symbolic Naturalism.
At the point when Munch is saying that he feels a shout through nature, he shows a type of
distinguishing proof with nature, and a type of representation of nature.
