Edvard Munch
(born December 12, 1863—died January 23, 1944)
Edvard Munch developed a painting style that revolted against naturalism, using tortuous, free-flowing lines to express and personify emotion. His series Frieze of Life, which grew to 22 works, includes paintings The Voice, The Kiss, and his most famous work, The Scream. After a nervous breakdown in 1908-09, Munch's work became less intense, but his early, darker paintings define his legacy.
