Munsch Before Lunch

Its Edvard's 150th something... and we buzzed by the Oslo National Gallery (ONG) and joined the par-tay. It was a scream of course... 

Edvard seems to paint mood which is doom backward and that also might be appropriate. It was interesting to see  room after room of his work and observe the development of his craft to its pinnacle (so some would say) of The Scream. That would be the technicolour version not the earlier black and white wood cut... which just to be contentious, I preferred. 

The shrews in charge of the ONG wouldn't allow photography... So ONG OMG one can photograph the Mona Lisa... no problems.. but Eddie Munsch... or EdMu as Who Weekly might call him if he was a celeb today... the ONG says : "I don't think so". 

Leaving the ONG, we ran into what I hope was a kinder excursion and not a family outing...

Oslo street theatre looks a lot like street theatre (perhaps?) anywhere...

The surprise of Oslo was the Operahaus. Its one impressive structure, that I failed to capture adequately.
