To an unidentified recipient, in idiosyncratic German, announcing an illness requiring total rest: "Ich bin krank und muss vorlaufig vollstandich ruhe haben - Schreibe baldigst / Herzlichsten Gruss / Edvard Munch".
Munch's intensely evocative treatment of psychological themes built upon some of the main tenets of late 19th-century Symbolism and greatly influenced German Expressionism in the early 20th century. One of his best-known works is "The Scream" (1893).
