Artwork Details
The Scream (1893) by Edvard Munch is one of the most iconic images in art, symbolizing anxiety, surprise, shock, terror and despair. The Norwegian name is Skrik (Scream), and the German title when first exhibited was Der Schrei der Natur (The Scream of Nature). Munch recalled going for a walk at sunset when suddenly the setting sun turned the clouds "a blood red" and he sensed an "infinite scream passing through nature." Munch created two versions in paint and two in pastels, as well as a lithograph. This first version from 1893 features the barely visible pencil inscription "Kan kun være malet af en gal Mand!" (Could only have been painted by a madman!).
- All sizes given are in inches (″), assembled within a ¼″ tolerance.
- Stretched canvases are assembled within a ¼″ tolerance, ex. an 8x12″ canvas's final dimensions will be ~8x12″, on 1.5″ deep stretcher bars.
- Framed canvases are ~2″ larger, ex. an 8x12″ canvas's final framed dimensions will be ~10x14″ overall.
- Float frames are ⅝″ wide viewed from the front, and 1⅞″ deep; with a visible gap ("float") between the frame and canvas of ~¼″.
- Rolled canvases have a 2″ white margin to allow for custom stretching and framing, ex. an 8x12″ print's final dimensions will be 12x16″.
Ready to Hang Canvas
Canvas prints, or wrapped canvas, are hand-stretched over solid wood like the base of traditional painting. Canvases come with black backboard and hanging wire installed, ready to hang on your wall — without a frame.
Stretched canvas combines a classic medium with a modern finish, an ideal way to present artwork for display.
Canvas Float Frame
We offer modern frames intended to complement any art. Float frames feature a visible gap ("float") between the frame and canvas. No glass/glazing is used - canvases have a mildly reflective satin finish.
