Eksphrastic Impulse: Ode to "The Scream"
Tempera, Pastel, Tempera, Crayon
Eighteen-Ninety-Three to Nineteen and Ten
Cardboard is what they were created on
Four different versions made in the end
Clouds ill and tired bleed red with pure blood
Tone and Mood set with orange, yellow, and blue
"Der Schreider Nature" or known as "Den Skrik"
"The Scream" - This is its English Nom de Plume
Through art expressing truth not facade
of passion and pain does this portrait shriek
