Edvard Munch was born in a rustic farmhouse in the village of Ådalsbruk in Løten, Norway, to Laura Catherine Bjølstad and Christian Munch, the son of a priest. Christian was a doctor and medical officer who married Laura, a woman half his age, in 1861. Edvard had an elder sister, Johanne Sophie, and three younger siblings: Peter Andreas, Laura Catherine, and Inger Marie. Both Sophie and Edvard appear to have inherited their artistic talent from their mother. Edvard Munch was related to painter Jacob Munch (1776–1839) and historian Peter Andreas Munch (1810–1863)
According to Edward,
He was walking along the road with two friends – the sun was setting – suddenly the sky turned blood red – he paused, feeling exhausted, and leaned on the fence – there was blood and tongues of fire above the blue-black fjord and the city – his friends walked on, and he stood there trembling with anxiety – and sensed an infinite scream passing through nature.
The painting looks scary some how. It most had hapened on a bridge, It seems at the time when the sun was about to set. The person screaming looks like a skeleton and everything seems to loose it original shape proberbly due to the wind.
