Compilation,
in a dream I saw our Men in Military fatigues in a gas chamber in Germany,
the chamber was really specific,
it had many a stories,
as I jetted through the present Men in t-shirt and fatigues stood as I whizzed along the bench in a straight line,
there were not any dog tags hanging as they moved,
this would be a tell,
have are Men been switched and is that Special Unit in account?
The chamber stretched itself out to explain the Time,
the Time went all the way back to World War I,
that door as I saw had a man screaming at the round window of the chamber,
he was frozen in the scream though,
is the fact that an F.B.I. Man today,
a man named Clint Watt clinging the information through in such a manner that I see?
The Scream (Norwegian: Skrik) is the popular name given to each of four versions of a composition, created as both paintings and pastels, by Norwegian Expressionist artist Edvard Munch between 1893 and 1910. The German title Munch gave these works is Der Schrei der Natur (The Scream of Nature). The works show a figure with an agonized expression against a landscape with a tumultuous orange sky. Arthur Lubow has described The Scream as "an icon of modern art, a Mona Lisa for our time."[1]
Edvard Munch created the four versions in various media. The National Gallery in Oslo, Norway, holds one of two painted versions (1893, shown here). The Munch Museum holds the other painted version (1910, see gallery, below) and a pastel version from 1893. These three versions have not traveled for years,[2] though the pastel version was on display in a temporary exhibition at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam in 2015.[3]
The fourth version (pastel, 1895) was sold for $119,922,600 at Sotheby's Impressionist and Modern Art auction on 2 May 2012 to financier Leon Black,[4][5] the fourth highest nominal price paid for a painting at auction.[6] The pastel was on display in the Museum of Modern Art in New York from October 2012 to April 2013.[7]
Also in 1895, Munch created a lithograph stone of the image. Of the lithograph prints produced by Munch, several examples survive.[8] Only approximately four dozen prints were made before the original stone was resurfaced by the printer in Munch's absence.[9]
The Scream has been the target of several high-profile art thefts. In 1994, the version in the National Gallery was stolen. It was recovered several months later. In 2004, both The Scream and Madonna were stolen from the Munch Museum, and both were recovered two years later.

The "Future" is here now and as this World spins the person of random
is no-longer random in hand to phone to call and respond in responsible
brain to conversation in palm. This is not the find to have had thrown
to yesterday as the future is on Time in Ages while the people at-large
discuss. Communication is not left off as the Movies, i.e. Films, have
set to picture in moving a ride that places what is the future to now.
Again I state to whom it may concern that having all paths with all
religions on 'Scream' does not excuse the table for dinner by replacing
your ignorance with a painting of brushes and charts.
The
attitude that is driven on Coast to Coast with George Noory wreaks of
wisdom on the trim as Plaisades Constellation is spoken of in plain
frame. Those people in communication speak with such frankness that I
know the persons ignorant retrieval of wisdom will only deliver reality
on an already used threshold. Shall not the person at-large with
information walk with more than the 'what if'? Did not the hand-painted
Caves speak in direction so long ago that their or your banter retire?
What is the find should the valley in a grave not express more than a

Simply soot!!
Chime is a
sound not a bell. The metal of element to the chamber of grief is nigh
the hour of what minute made sixty seconds in an hour of a face. Once
the dial of tone is math and the addition is in subtraction to divide,
the mathematics is the board of arithmetic on advanced. Fizz sicks
jostle? This world jeans no liberty to bind the brief and case that.
Leg to thigh, fire to flame, what chime is the camp?
Round
the stone to barrier a spot? Should the memory gore a glorified reed?
Flutes and fluttering raised? How long is the persons banter to engage
the facts that World War II was not won. Should that have been the
case than Germany, Poland and what land left to the ground would have
been returned to the Jew. These parts of difference to the artwork and
money stolen and or taken in account for the Jews during the time when accountability was afforded the excuse to i.e. take and not return left
empty shelves and fat Germans. These Wars of discretion by those that
reported the finds has left a world full to the rim of edge and cliff
life waiting for the grand special of Nuclear War to wipe the slate yet
again and deliver the Caveman application as another fling to dirt and
grass. In this understanding the dirt flies via Tweets in accordance
with our President, the President of the United States of America and
with the horror of his sister hip Jeff Sessions in title rises note to

A type

see the fleet is as fear shook the branch of lives and grants the next
lives with great foundation to avoid at not all costs as just that
statement grants again their foolishness. The 'Branch of Lives' and
'grants' instead allows the comprehension of their "selves" being the
heave of wretched way to know that the reef of chore is on the
thresholds dependent upon the door to what is the choice to landing in
the ship of transfers.
Again I bravo note to whom may
be ease dropping. I am with the Cops and in lieu of letter to noted a
good meeting with Clint Watts is of wisdom and not rash behavior as the
future is in the mind of whom has knowledge to know that one exists. As
persons are usually busy and found in binding marriages, I feel that
writing the width in general with sketch to drawing nothing has put my
brain to rest and my thought to narrow the weeds to see the Mountain of

Sources of inspiration
The original German title given by Munch to his work was Der Schrei der Natur ("The Scream of Nature"). The Norwegian title, Skrik, is cognate with the English "shriek".[citation needed][clarification needed] Occasionally, the painting also has been called The Cry.
In his diary in an entry headed "Nice 22 January 1892", Munch wrote:
I was walking along the road with two friends – the sun was setting – suddenly the sky turned blood red – I paused, feeling exhausted, and leaned on the fence – there was blood and tongues of fire above the blue-black fjord and the city – my friends walked on, and I stood there trembling with anxiety – and I sensed an infinite scream passing through nature.[10]
He later described his inspiration for the image:
One evening I was walking along a path, the city was on one side and the fjord below. I felt tired and ill. I stopped and looked out over the fjord—the sun was setting, and the clouds turning blood red. I sensed a scream passing through nature; it seemed to me that I heard the scream. I painted this picture, painted the clouds as actual blood. The color shrieked. This became The Scream.[11]
Among theories advanced to account for the reddish sky in the
background is the artist's memory of the effects of the powerful
volcanic eruption of Krakatoa,
which deeply tinted sunset skies red in parts of the Western hemisphere
for months during 1883 and 1884, about a decade before Munch painted The Scream.[12]
This explanation has been disputed by scholars, who note that Munch was
an expressive painter and was not primarily interested in literal
renderings of what he had seen. Alternatively, it has been suggested
that the proximity of both a slaughterhouse and a lunatic asylum to the site depicted in the painting may have offered some inspiration.[13] The scene was identified as being the view from a road overlooking Oslo, the Oslofjord and Hovedøya, from the hill of Ekeberg.[14] At the time of painting the work, Munch's manic depressive sister Laura Catherine was a patient at the asylum at the foot of Ekeberg.
In 1978, the Munch scholar Robert Rosenblum suggested that the strange, sexless creature in the foreground of the painting was inspired by a Peruvian mummy, which Munch could have seen at the 1889 Exposition Universelle
in Paris. This mummy, which was buried in a fetal position with its
hands alongside its face, also struck the imagination of Munch's friend Paul Gauguin: it stood as a model for figures in more than twenty of Gauguin's paintings, among those the central figure in his painting, Human misery (Grape harvest at Arles) and for the old woman at the left in his painting, Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going?.[15] In 2004, an Italian anthropologist speculated that Munch might have seen a mummy in Florence's Museum of Natural History, which bears an even more striking resemblance to the painting.[16]
Nonetheless, later studies have confirmed Rosenblum's suggestion,
disproving the Italian theory, for Munch had not been to Florence until
after painting The Scream.[17]
The imagery of The Scream has been compared to that which an individual suffering from depersonalization disorder experiences, a feeling of distortion of the environment and one's self,[18][19] and also facial pain in the form of Trigeminal neuralgia.[20]
Painting materials
The material composition of the 1893 painted version was examined in 2010.[21] The pigment analysis revealed the use of cadmium yellow, vermilion, ultramarine and viridian among other pigments of the 19th century.[22]
Thefts
The Scream has been the target of a number of thefts and theft attempts. Some damage has been suffered in these thefts.
1994 theft
On 12 February 1994, the same day as the opening of the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, two men broke into the National Gallery, Oslo, and stole its version of The Scream, leaving a note reading "Thanks for the poor security".[23][24] The painting had been moved down to a second-story gallery[25] as part of the Olympic festivities.[26] After the gallery refused to pay a ransom demand of US$1 million in March 1994, Norwegian police set up a sting operation with assistance from the British police (SO10) and the Getty Museum and the painting was recovered undamaged on 7 May 1994.[25]
In January 1996, four men were convicted in connection with the theft,
including Pål Enger, who had been convicted of stealing Munch's Vampire in 1988.[27]
They were released on appeal on legal grounds: the British agents
involved in the sting operation had entered Norway under false
identities.[28]
2004 theft
The 1910 version of The Scream was stolen on 22 August 2004, during daylight hours, when masked gunmen entered the Munch Museum in Oslo and stole it and Munch's Madonna.[29]
A bystander photographed the robbers as they escaped to their car with
the artwork. On 8 April 2005, Norwegian police arrested a suspect in
connection with the theft, but the paintings remained missing and it was
rumored that they had been burned by the thieves to destroy evidence.[30][31]
On 1 June 2005, with four suspects already in custody in connection
with the crime, the city government of Oslo offered a reward of 2
million Norwegian krone (roughly US$313,500 or €231,200) for information that could help locate the paintings.[32]
Although the paintings remained missing, six men went on trial in early
2006, variously charged with either helping to plan or participating in
the robbery. Three of the men were convicted and sentenced to between
four and eight years in prison in May 2006, and two of the convicted,
Bjørn Hoen and Petter Tharaldsen, were also ordered to pay compensation
of 750 million kroner (roughly US$117.6 million or €86.7 million) to the
City of Oslo.[33] The Munch Museum was closed for ten months for a security overhaul.[34]
On 31 August 2006, Norwegian police announced that a police operation had recovered both The Scream and Madonna,
but did not reveal detailed circumstances of the recovery. The
paintings were said to be in a better-than-expected condition. "We are
100 percent certain they are the originals," police chief Iver Stensrud
told a news conference. "The damage was much less than feared."[35][36]
Munch Museum director Ingebjørg Ydstie confirmed the condition of the
paintings, saying it was much better than expected and that the damage
could be repaired.[37] The Scream had moisture damage on the lower left corner, while Madonna suffered several tears on the right side of the painting as well as two holes in Madonna's arm.[38]
Before repairs and restoration began, the paintings were put on public
display by the Munch Museum beginning 27 September 2006. During the
five-day exhibition, 5,500 people viewed the damaged paintings. The
conserved works went back on display on 23 May 2008, when the exhibition
"Scream and Madonna — Revisited" at the Munch Museum in Oslo displayed
the paintings together.[39] Some damage to The Scream may prove impossible to repair, but the overall integrity of the work has not been compromised.[40][41]
Record sale at auction
The 1895 pastel-on-board version of the painting, owned by Norwegian businessman Petter Olsen, sold at Sotheby's in London for a record price of nearly US$120 million at auction on 2 May 2012.[42][43] The bidding started at $40 million and lasted for over 12 minutes when American businessman Leon Black by phone gave the final offer of US$119,922,500, including the buyer's premium.[5]
Sotheby's said the painting was the most colorful and vibrant of the
four versions painted by Munch and the only version whose frame was
hand-painted by the artist to include his poem, detailing the work's
inspiration.[2] After the sale, Sotheby's auctioneer Tobias Meyer
said the painting was "worth every penny", adding: "It is one of the
great icons of art in the world and whoever bought it should be
congratulated."[44]
The previous record for the most expensive work of art sold at auction had been held by Picasso's Nude, Green Leaves and Bust, which went for US$106.5 million at Christie's two years prior on 4 May 2010.[45] When accounting for inflation, the highest price paid for art at an auction is still held by Van Gogh's Portrait of Dr. Gachet, which sold for $82.5 million in 1990, or about $155 million 2012 dollars.[46] There have been reports that The Card Players, by Cézanne, sold privately for $250m in 2011,[47][48] which can not be verified for the establishment of a record price.
In popular culture
In the late twentieth century, The Scream was imitated, parodied, and (following its copyright expiration) outright copied, which led to it acquiring an iconic status in popular culture. It was used on the cover of some editions of Arthur Janov's book The Primal Scream.[49] In 1983–1984, pop artist Andy Warhol made a series of silk prints copying works by Munch, including The Scream.
His stated intention was to desacralize the painting by making it into a
mass-reproducible object. Munch had already begun that process,
however, by making a lithograph of the work for reproduction. Erró's ironic and irreverent treatment of Munch's masterpiece in his acrylic paintings The Second Scream (1967) and Ding Dong (1979) is considered a characteristic of post-modern art.[50] The expression of Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) in the poster for the movie Home Alone was inspired by The Scream. Cartoonist Gary Larson included a "tribute" to The Scream (entitled The Whine) in his Wiener Dog Art painting and cartoon compilation, in which the central figure is replaced by a howling dachshund. The Scream has been used in advertising, in cartoons such as The Simpsons, films, and on television.
The principal alien antagonists depicted in the 2011 BBC series of Doctor Who, named "The Silence", have an appearance partially based on The Scream.[51] In 2001, Big Finish Productions did an audio, Dust Breeding, featuring the Seventh Doctor attempting to acquire The Scream
from an art gallery in the future where it was destined to disappear in
mysterious circumstances, but learned that it contained an ancient
psychic weapon known as the Warp Core, which became trapped in the
artist's mind until he 'exorcised' the Warp Core into the painting, with
the Master's efforts to take control of the weapon damaging his body and his second attempt resulting in the destruction of the colony.
The Ghostface mask worn by the primary antagonists of the Scream series of horror movies is based on the painting, and was created by Brigitte Sleiertin, a Fun World employee, as a Halloween costume, prior to being discovered by Marianne Maddalena and Wes Craven for the film.[52]
In the Jonathan Creek episode "The Coonskin Cap", Jonathan works out a crucial clue by looking at an image of The Scream being used for a backdrop, reflecting how a change in perspective can mean that people perceive the painting as someone hearing a scream as well as someone screaming, allowing him to work out the circumstances behind a woman's death.
In 2013, The Scream was one of four paintings that the Norwegian postal service chose for a series of stamps marking the 150th anniversary of Edvard Munch’s birth.[53]
A patient resource group for trigeminal neuralgia (which has been described as the most painful condition in existence) have also adopted the image as a symbol of the condition.[54]
In "The Missing Scream of Munch", an episode of the anime Detective Conan, the disappearance of The Scream provides the main part of the plot.[55]
The painting features in chapter 12 of Philip K. Dick's novel, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
The two bounty hunters, Deckard and Resch are on the trail of Luba
Luft, a suspect android. The painting is described as follows: "The
painting showed a hairless, oppressed creature with a head like an
inverted pear, its hands clapped in horror to its ears, its mouth open
in a vast soundless scream. Twisted ripples of the creature's torment,
echoes of its cry, flooded out into the air surrounding it: the man or
woman, whichever it was, had become contained by its own howl."
Characters rendered in an art style explicitly resembling the painting are frequently drawn in mangas written by Rumiko Takahashi, such as in Ranma 1/2. Takahashi has expressed fondness for the work.[56]
In most Unicode emoji renderings, U+1F631 😱 Face Screaming in Fear is made to resemble the subject of the painting.[57]
A simplified version of the subject of the painting is one of the pictographs considered by the US Department of Energy for use as a non-language-specific symbol of danger in order to warn future human civilizations of the presence of radioactive waste.[58]
