"The Scream" by Edvard Munch (1863) |
So sorry for this weird post. I am doing great, my pain and anguish aren't even a quarter of what Munch depicts in his classic painting. At the moment I posted, I just felt everything was becoming too much with the demands I placed on myself and felt came from others. I needed room to go to scream it all off without disturbing my neighbors.
I just read an interesting article about The Scream. It seems that Munch may have seen those colors after all -- the Krakatoa explosion may have colored sunsets around that world at that time -- the article in the American Meteorological Society can be found here: https://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/10.1175/BAMS-D-17-0144.1
ReplyDeleteAh cool, I never knew that! I'll read the article at once ;)
