Two People
1914
Edvard Munch, the guy who gave us *The Scream*, wasn't just about panic—he was obsessed with the awkward, intense space between men and women. In this 1914 piece, *Zwei Menschen* (Two People), a couple is huddled together, but it doesn't look exactly cozy. The man stares off into the void with a haunted look while the woman leans in close, their bodies rendered in frantic, scratchy lines that feel like nervous scribbles. It’s a raw, unpolished look at intimacy that feels more psychological than physical, typical of Munch's moody style.
