Edvard Munch Is Known as the Painter of ‘The Scream.’ His Many Haunting Portraits Show That He Was Much More Than His Masterpiece

1. Edvard Munch. Self-Portrait with Skeleton Arm, 1895, Munch Museum, Oslo. Munch’s upper body and head emerge from the darkness, surrounded by a deep black background. He stares directly at the viewer with a pale, solemn face and sunken eyes, his expression stern, introspective, and spectral. At the bottom of the image, a bony, skeletal arm is prominently depicted. It appears almost disconnected from his body, lying along the bottom edge like a symbolic signature or a memento mori—a reminder of death’s presence and inevitability. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edvard_Munch#/media/File:Edvard_Munch_-_Self-Portrait_(1895)_G0192-59_-_Google_Art_Project.jpg
