 | | Edvard Munch (December 12, 1863 – January 23, 1944) was a Norwegian expressionist painter and printmaker. |
 | | Munch traveled to Paris in 1885, and his work began to show the influence of French painters — first of the impressionists, and then of the postimpressionists and of art nouveau design. |
 | | In 1892, Munch formulated his characteristic, and original, Synthetist idiom as seen in Melancholy in which colour is the symbol-laden element (The Scream). |
