Here's another one by August Malmström with a Halloweenish feel. There seem to be two forms of this, a light form and a dark one, so I'll post them both. I'm not sure which one is true to the original, or if there were two originals. Which do you prefer?

You trying to tell me you didn't hear that shriek? That was something trying to get out of its premature grave, and I don't want to be here when it does. - Phantom of the Paradise (1974)

Edvard Munch, The Dead Mother and the Child:
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show
a fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
and celluloid heroes never really die...

That one conveys the scene shockingly well! The look on the child's face....

Munch had an interesting style and expressive vision, but all the paintings I've ever seen of his are so dark in nature!

That's just hard to believe, isn't it? I've seen some amazing work by photorealist painters, but I don't think I've ever seen one that good!Re: Favorite Paintings
Isn't it amazing??? Some of them, even if you zoom, don't look like paintings. By the way, nice photo change.
