Firda<p>My second favourite photo that I took in Oslo is this one, featuring Edvard Munch's The Scream. There are three versions of The Scream that you can see at the Munch Museum, but we didn't go there. We went to the National Museum instead where you can view this version, which is probably the most famous one. </p><p>Quite a few people posed in front of the painting for photos, some wore the expression of the person in the painting. It was fun to watch. Would've done the same if I hadn't found it too awkward with the security guard standing so close. 😂</p><p><a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/TheScream" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheScream</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/EdvardMunch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EdvardMunch</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/NationalMuseet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NationalMuseet</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Art</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/Gallery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gallery</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/Oslo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Oslo</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/Norway" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Norway</span></a> <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a></p>

Hotspur🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦<p>"Death and Life," Edvard Munch, 1894.</p><p>Norwegian Munch (1863-1944) is almost insanely famous for one painting, "The Scream," (which has become one of the art world's most parodied and marketed images) but there's so much more to him and his work.</p><p>His early life was often touched by illness and death, and he himself feared inheriting a mental illness that ran in his family. He took to painting to deal with his dreads.</p><p>He traveled around Europe, meeting people like Van Gogh, Gauguin, Toulouse-Lautrec, and even playwright August Strindberg. When WWII came, his work was banned by the Nazi party, and some of it seized, but most survived (a handful are still missing), securing his legacy. </p><p>He experienced mental health troubles, exacerbated by drinking, but with therapy and treatment he powered through and became more optimistic and bright in his outlook. He died during the Nazi occupation of Norway, and the party orchestrated his funeral and tried to hint that he had become one of them at the end, but nobody bought it.</p><p>This vision of a woman and a skeleton embracing reflects one of his common themes, the mingling of love and death, Eros and Thanatos.
