Edvard Munch.
Edvard Munch was born in December, 12th 1863 in a rustic farm house. He was an artist. One of his first paintings, was the world famous in the day, The Scream.
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 as red 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.
Another painting he made was the sick child. It is a portrait of his older and favorite sister Sophie (Johanne Sophie b. 1862) who died of tuberculosis in 1877.
I think he is one of the best artists I know.
