Description
What a halloween! Good old boy George meeting up with Munch's screaming figure on the boardwalk. We all know that history haunts us and these two characters from our past are the perfect ghosts to demonstrate how scary it can be.
Perfect image for a halloween card to get your Democratic friends chuckling or maybe even a Republican with a funny bone.
From Wikkipedia's free online encyclopedia:
In his diary in an entry headed, Nice 22 January 1892, Munch 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.
