Edvard Munch

• Edvard Munch was born on December 12, 1863, in
  Loten, Norway. When he was a young man, Munch
  lost most of his family, which may have been a
  contributing factor to the dark nature of his
  art. Much of his work is concerned with loss and
  anguish, such as The Scream and The Sick Child.
• Munch's work is classified as Expressionism, a
  style which includes expressive use of color and
  mark, making for absolute realism. The images he
  painted are simplified, but drawn in a highly
  emotional manner, using dark colors and strong
  strokes to signify the depth of his feelings.
