The title of this painting is The Scream, created by the Norwegian artist Edvard Munch in 1893.
The strange figure on the bridge appears to be overwhelmed by anxiety while two distant figures continue walking behind them. Above the scene, a dramatically distorted red sky stretches across the landscape.
Munch based the image on an intense experience he described in his diary, when he felt that he sensed an “infinite scream” passing through nature.
