	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Edvard Munch (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		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).
