The Scream | Edvard Munch Postcard

The Scream (1895) by Norwegian painter Edvard Munch is one of the most iconic and emotionally intense works in the history of art. This expressionist masterpiece depicts a figure standing on a bridge, seemingly in the midst of a powerful emotional crisis, with a distorted, agonised face and hands raised to the temples. The backdrop features swirling, turbulent skies in vivid oranges, yellows, and blues, creating a sense of chaos and unease. The figure’s scream is almost palpable, capturing the feeling of existential anguish and despair. Munch’s use of colour, bold lines, and abstracted forms evoke an intense psychological experience, making The Scream a symbol of modern anxiety and the human condition.
