Edvard Munch (IPA: [ˈɛdvɑʈ muŋk], December 12, 1863 – January 23, 1944) was a Norwegian expressionist painter and printmaker.
The Scream (1893; originally called Despair), Munch's best-known painting, is one of the pieces in a series titled The Frieze of Life, in which Munch explored the themes of life, love, fear, death and melancholy. As with many of his works, he painted several versions of it. One version was stolen in 1994 and another in 2004. Both versions have since been recovered.
