Vienna's Kunsthistorisches Museum holds 3 works by Edvard Munch (1863–1944) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Munch's paintings are studies in psychological exposure — the anxiety, desire, and grief he painted so rawly feel almost unbearable in reproduction, and standing before them in person deepens that intensity rather than diminishing it. The Scream in particular, seen at the National Museum in Oslo, has a physical urgency that its ubiquity as an image entirely fails to convey.
