The Scream, 1893 by Edvard Munch

The Scream is a composition created by Edvard Munch in 1893.  Munch recalled that he had been out for a walk at sunset when suddenly the setting sun's light turned the clouds "a blood red". Some scholars believe that Munch was describing a terrifying emotional experience that would today be called a panic attack.

Goya´s paintings

Francisco Goya 

He was born in 1746 in Fuendetodos (Aragón), Spain and he died in 1828. He was a Spanish artist whose paintings, drawings, and engravings reflected contemporary historical upheavals and influenced important 19th- and 20th-century painters.

Goya became a court painter to the Spanish Crown in 1786 and this early portion of his career is marked by portraits of the Spanish aristocracy and royalty, and Rococo-style tapestry cartoons designed for the royal palace.

He had a severe and undiagnosed illness in 1793 that left him deaf, after which his work became progressively darker and more pessimistic
