    attention, but when I saw "The Scream" by Edvard Munch I said to myself that this piece of art is perfect to talk about, "The Scream" belongs to the expressionistic style because it is composed by distortion of forms, and because of the display of strong colors and expression of feelings such as melancholic, anxiety, sadness, and erotic feelings. I don't believe that this piece of art falls in another style of art than expressionism. The creator of The Scream Edvard Munch was born in 1863,

    The 1893 painting “The Scream”, painted by Edvard Munch is very captivating. This painting makes me feel the true emotion Edvard is feeling. At first, I see the dark dull colours in the gloomy scenery but then I can look past that and see such a warm fiery red-orange sky. I love the details in this panting from the people in the background to the organic strokes of the paintbrush exhibiting a different shade with every stroke. However, I cannot help but wonder why? Why is this human screaming or

    makes a critical examination of the Scream trilogy and repudiates the notion that the film series is reactionary and conservative in its approach to addressing social issues. The author contends that the distinctive manner in which these films have treated the slasher villain and the female survivor is reflective of the American concerns of the 1990s and that this approach follows from a progressive, revolutionary stance. Further, the author asserts that Scream and its sequels have revolutionized

    The Scream, actually exists in four versions, two pastels, and two paintings. The painting of The Scream most commonly seen today was created in 1893. The subject matter of the painting depicts a screaming man walking along the road in front of a blood red sky. In my opinion, the content of the painting is a man suffering from a mental illness, such as schizophrenia. As soon as the two figures in the painting walk away and the man is by himself, the sky turns blood red he starts to scream. There

    If I had an unlimited amount of funds to purchase a piece or art work I would purchase The Scream by Edvard Munch. This artwork is beautifully painted with curved lines, warm and cool colors, and it expresses emotion. The Scream’s curved lines are giving the image an uneasy feeling and adding dimension to the price of art. Having curves is making the painting unordinary. Even the person is in all curved lines, almost making it so that the brush strokes are being seen. The hands on the person in

    Through analysis of Edvard Munch’s painting “The Scream”, the mood is portrayed as tense and frightful.

The terrified being conveys a frightful mood due to the contortions of his
