Gustave Moreau (1863-1944)
you may already be familiar with Munch's most famous painting, " The Scream ." The image is unmistakable and unforgettable. Munch was a Norwegian artist. His work was based on his obsession with grief and loss. This can be traced to his childhood when he lost both his mother and sister to tuberculosis.

Munch studied and worked in Paris and later worked in Berlin as well. He was influenced by Impressionism and Post-Impressionism, but as he matured, his painting became more personal and expressive of his inner demons. Not surprisingly, many of his paintings deal with illness and death. In 1892, in Berlin, an exhibition of his paintings so shocked the authorities that the show was closed. Undeterred, Munch and his sympathizers worked throughout the 1890s toward the development of what became known as "German Expressionist art." His paintings can be said to be a bridge between the Symbolists and the later Expressionists.

After terrible bouts of anxiety, Munch lived out the remainder of his life in a state of tranquility, a tranquility reflected in his later murals with brightly colored landscapes. Munch's etchings, lithographs, and woodcuts are considered a major force in modern graphic art. The style is:
