Description
Step into the haunting emotional landscape of Anxiety (1894), a powerful painting by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch. Known for capturing the raw edges of human emotion, Munch distills a silent scream into the faces of a crowd, echoing his iconic The Scream. Set against a blood-red sky, this artwork confronts the viewer with ghostly figures whose hollow expressions evoke isolation, fear, and existential dread. Painted in a time of deep personal turmoil, Anxiety reveals the psychological undercurrents of modern life, making it as relevant today as it was over a century ago. Munch, born in Loten, Norway, and later passing in Oslo, carved a legacy of psychological intensity that shaped Expressionism forever. This painting is not just art—it’s a mirror to the soul's most vulnerable state.
