"Edvard Munch," Asta Nørregaard, 1885.
Nørregaard (1853-1933) was never part of the artistic elite in either Paris or her native Norway, but she was a busy and in-demand portraitist. She featured in many exhibitions during her lifetime, and even received a medal from King Haakon VII of Norway in 1920.
Edvard Munch (1863-1944) is one of history's most acclaimed painters, with an easily recognizable style. His oeuvre was influenced by his mental health struggles as much as it was by the Expressionism of his time. His "Scream" is perhaps one of the most iconic paintings in the modern art world, and a work copied and parodied almost to death.
From the Munch Museum, Oslo.
