    Edward Munzch 12 December 186323 January 1944 wasa Norwegian Symbolist painter, printmaker and an important

    forerunner ofexpressionist art. His best-known composition, The

    Scream, is part of a series The Frieze of Life, in which Munchexplored the themes of love, fear, death, melancholia, and

    anxiety.

    The ScreamPainted in 1893, The Scream is Munch's most famous work and

    one of the most recognizable paintings in all art. It has been

    widely interpreted as representing the universal anxiety ofmodern man. Painted with broad bands of garish color and highly

    simplified forms, and employing a high viewpoint, the agonized

    figure is reduced to a garbed skull in the throes of an emotional

    crisis. With this painting, Munch met his stated goal of the study

    of the soul, that is to say the study of my own self. Munch wrote

    of how the painting came to be: "I was walking down the road

    with two friends when the sun set; suddenly, the sky turned asred as blood. I stopped and leaned against the fence, feeling

    unspeakably tired. Tongues of fire and blood stretched over the

    bluish black fjord. My friends went on walking, while I lagged behind, shivering with fear. Then I heard the

    enormous, infinite scream of nature." He later described the personal anguish behind the painting, for severalyears I was almost madYou know my picture, The Scream? I was stretched to the limitnature was

    screaming in my blood After that I gave up hope ever of being able to love again.

    Pablo PicassoDuring the 1930s radical leftist politics characterized many of the artists connected to Surrealism,

    including Pablo Picasso. As Pablo Picasso painted Guernica in the surrealist style in protest of the bombing

    ofGuernica, this image is used for purposes of identification and commentary in a discussion of Guernica'ssignificance to 20th century Western painting. A discussion of20th century Western painting would not be

    complete without referring to this work. Guernica is painted in surrealist style and is arguably Pablo Picasso's

    most famous work, as such this image of Guernicais used for purposes of identification and commentary in asection of the article concerning Pablo Picasso's period where classicism and surrealism dominated his work.

    Any discussion ofPablo Picasso would not be complete without referring to this work

    Fire in a Village 02 until his death in 839. His father was Ealhmund of Kent. In the 780s Egbert was forced

    into exile by Offa of Mercia and Beorhtric of Wessex, but on Beorhtric's death in 802 Egbert returned and took

    the throne.

    Georges Braque(13 May 188231 August 1963) was a

    major 20th century French painterand sculptor who

    developed the art style known as Cubism. Beginning during

    1909, Braque began to work closely with Pablo Picasso,

    who had been developing a similar style of painting. At thetime Pablo Picasso was influenced by Gauguin,

    Czanne, African tribal masks and Iberian sculpture, whileBraque was interested mainly in developing Czanne's ideas

    of multiple perspectives. A comparison of the works of

    Picasso and Braque during 1908 reveals that the effect ofhis encounter with Picasso was more to accelerate and

    intensify Braques exploration of Czannes ideas, rather

    than to divert his thinking in any essential way. Theinvention of Cubism was a joint effort between Picasso and

    Braque, then residents ofMontmartre, Paris. These artists

    were the style's main innovators. After meeting in Octoberor November 1907, Braque and Picasso, in particular, beganworking on the development of Cubism in 1908. Both

    artists produced paintings of monochromatic color and

    complex patterns of faceted form, now termed Analytic

    Cubism. A decisive time of its development occurredduring the summer of 1911,[3]when Georges Braque and

    Pablo Picasso painted side by side in Cret in the French

    Pyrenees, each artist producing paintings that are difficultsometimes virtually impossibleto distinguish from those

    of the other. In 1912, they began to experiment with collage and papier coll.

    Edward Munzch 12 December 186323 January1944)[1]was a Norwegian Symbolist painter, printmaker

    and an important forerunner ofexpressionist art. in which

    Munch explored the themes of love, fear, death,melancholia, and anxiety.

    The Sick Child (or Det syke barn in Norwegian) is an

    1885 painting by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863

    1944). It is a portrait of his older and favorite sisterSophie (Johanne Sophie b. 1862) who died

    oftuberculosis in 1877 at the approximate age of 15.

    Munch considered the painting "a breakthrough in myart".[1]

    Munch created numerous versions of the painting. The

    fourth, painted in 1907, is presently in the Tate Gallery,London. In 1928, it was on display in

    theGemldegalerie in Dresden. In the 1930s and 1940s,

    the National Socialists labeled Munch's paintings as

    "degenerate art", and removed his work from Germanmuseums. They were taken to Berlin to be auctioned.

    Norwegian art dealer Harald Holst Halvorsen acquired

    several of Munch's paintings, including the 1907 version

    ofThe Sick Child, with the goal of returning themto Oslo. In 1939, it was purchased by Thomas Olsen and

    donated to the Tate Gallery collection.[1]

    Pablo Picasso

    Les Demoiselles d'Avignon. Oil on Canvas (244 x 234 cm).Pablo Picasso completed Les Demoisellesd'Avignon in 1907. Les Demoiselles d'Avignon appeared in the May 1910 edition of the Architectural Record, a

    US publication, Although it was labeled a "study", numerous sources confirm that the painting itself was

    reproduced therein. It wasn't published in France until 1925, when it appeared in La Rvolution surraliste.

    Picassos African-influenced Period (19071909) begins with the two figures on the right in his painting, Les

    Demoiselles d'Avignon, which were inspired by African artifacts. Formal ideas developed during this period

    lead directly into the Cubist period that follows.

    Georges Braque (13 May 188231 August 1963) was amajor 20th century French painter and sculptor.Violin and

    Candlestick, Paris, spring 1910.FauvismHis earliest works were impressionistic, but after seeing the

    work exhibited by the artistic group known as the "Fauves"(Beasts) in 1905, Braque adopted a Fauvist style. The Fauves, a

    group that included Henri Matisse and Andr Derain among

    others, used brilliant colors to represent emotional response.Braque worked most closely with the artists Raoul

    Dufy and Othon Friesz, who shared Braque's hometown of Le

    Havre, to develop a somewhat more subdued Fauvist style. In1906, Braque traveled with Friesz to L'Estaque, to Antwerp,and home to Le Havre to paint.
