The Scream is the popular name given to a composition created by Norwegian Expressionist artist Edvard Munch in 1893.
Munch recalled that he had been out for a walk at sunset when suddenly the setting sunlight turned the clouds "a blood red". He sensed an "infinite scream passing through nature" Scholars have located the spot to a fjord overlooking Oslo), and have suggested other explanations for the unnaturally orange sky, ranging from the effects of a volcanic eruption to a psychological reaction by Munch to his sister’s commitment at a nearby lunatic asylum.
