‘For as long as I can remember I have suffered from a deep feeling of anxiety which I have tried to express in my art. Without this anxiety and illness I would have been like a ship without a rudder’ – Edvard Munch.

This self-portrait was made by Munch in 1895, and includes the morbid detail of a skeleton arm framing the bottom of the image. His mother and sister both died when he was still a child, and from a young age he was preoccupied with death and suffering. These strong emotions were expressed through his art – escalating from love to loss and tenderness to jealousy.

We’re lifting the veil on the man behind ‘The Scream’ in our upcoming spring exhibition – find out more via the link in our bio.
