Mountains
1925
Edvard Munch, the guy who gave us the iconic screaming face, took a completely different vibe here with this vibrant, almost dreamlike mountain landscape. Painted late in his life around 1925, the piece features a massive, green-and-purple peak that seems to melt right into its own watery reflection below. Notice the playful drips of paint running down the canvas? That loose, energetic style shows Munch wasn't just about angst; he was experimenting with color and form until the very end. It's a refreshing look at nature through the eyes of a master who refused to stay in one artistic box.
