"Isn't "The Scream" here?" Suzuki Sonoko was a little surprised and turned her attention to Chi Feichi and Koshimizu Nanatsuki, "But Feichi brother and Nanatsuki sister are going to the airport soon, and they probably don't have time to go to the museum.
Are you enjoying "The Scream" here?"
Koshimi Nanatsuki nodded, "After watching "Despair" and "Uneasy", Mr. Chi and I will go to the airport."
"That's such a pity," Mao Lilan lamented. "The Scream is the most famous of these three paintings, right? You can't see that painting. Even I feel a little regretful."
"It doesn't matter," Koshimizu Nanatsuki laughed, ""The Scream" will be on display at the Munch Museum for a lot of time. If Mr. Chi and I want to see it, we can go directly to the Munch Museum to see it another day."
Only then did Mao Lilan realize that "The Scream" would also be exhibited on a regular basis, and smiled sheepishly, "That's right..."
"But the feeling of looking at these three paintings at the same time may be a little different," Suzuki Sonoko sighed, "I still feel it's a pity that you two can't come with us..."
Indoors, two large wooden boxes are placed on two operating tables.
The president of the Shimamura Shipping Company responsible for transporting the paintings stood aside. When he saw Suzuki Jirokichi entering the door, he immediately stepped forward and asked Suzuki Jirokichi if he would open the box for inspection. After receiving Suzuki Jirokichi's confirmation, he notified his employees to open the box.
The employees of Shimamura Shipping Company worked in pairs to remove the screws driven into the edge of the wooden box, and then carefully worked together to lift the lid and remove it.
"Despair" and "Uneasiness" are placed in wooden boxes, and the frames are tightly fixed with moisture-absorbing and moisture-proof protective materials.
Suzuki Jirokichi led Chi Feichi and others to the operating table, introduced the technicians sent by the Suzuki Museum to inspect the paintings, and then led a group of people to look at the paintings.
"Despair", "Uneasy", and "Scream" have the same background and sky color.
In the painting "Despair", under the bloody sky, outside the railing of the promenade is the dim and gloomy fjord. A man wearing a top hat stands in front of the railing, looking alone in the direction of the fjord, not far away.
They were two other men who had already walked some distance.
The two men walking forward turned their heads and talked to each other. Their dynamic body movements contrasted with the man standing still in front of the railing, giving the latter an abnormal sense of silence.
"Uneasiness" is also called "Worry" or "Anxiety". Like "Despair", it has a bloody sky and a gloomy fjord outside the promenade. However, in this painting, the promenade is crowded with people.
There are men wearing top hats and women wearing headscarves.
The main color of everyone's clothes is black, their faces are pale, they are crowded together on the dim promenade, and they seem to be queuing forward slowly. The water of the fjord and the women's headscarves are reflected in the blood-red sky, glowing with a layer of
Light red.
The whole picture does give off an unsettling apocalyptic atmosphere.
"This is "Despair" and "Uneasiness"..." Mao Lilan stood next to the operating table, watching the transportation company employees slowly take out the two paintings from the protective materials, and carefully observed the two paintings, "Look at
The man standing in front of the railing in "Desperation" makes me feel lonely."
Haibara Ai and Conan stood on the chairs brought by Suzuki Jirokichi, and watched with others as the two paintings were taken out.
Hiroshi Numajiri, a male technician at the Suzuki Museum, stood aside. Hearing Mao Lilan's words, he introduced aloud, "The backgrounds of the three paintings "Despair", "Uneasiness" and "Scream" are all looking down from the Ukeberg Mountain.
Oslo Fjord. It is said that one night, Munch and two friends walked along the seaside promenade. On one side of the road was the city and on the other side was the fjord. Just like in the painting, Munch was tired and sick at the time.
He stopped to rest by the railing and looked towards the fjord. His two friends continued to walk forward, but he fell behind. Suddenly, he heard a piercing scream passing through the world, and the sky seemed to be shaking.
Turned into blood color, he felt the terror and despair at that moment, so he created these three paintings. The picture in the painting "The Scream" was distorted. The people standing on the sidewalk covered their ears with their hands and opened their mouths wide.
The mouth is meant to reflect the horror of that scream. In the painting "Despair", the despair Munch wants to express is the despair of finding that he cannot resist the horror. However, I think there is probably also a part in his own situation that he cannot resist.
The despair felt by my friends must be the despair of not being able to move forward steadily like my friends..."
Mao Lilan looked at the man looking out at the fjord alone in the painting with a somewhat complicated mood, "So that's it, that's why the name of this painting is "Despair". It is an emotion that is stronger and more terrifying than loneliness."
Chi Feichi silently looked at the two paintings "Despair" and "Uneasiness". He noticed that Hui Yuan Ai, who was stepping on the chair, turned to look at him and cast a questioning look at Hui Yuan Ai, "What's wrong?"
"Mengk's mental state is not very good," Hui Yuan Ai looked at Chi Feichi and said thoughtfully, "He felt that there was a terrible scream passing through the world. It must be an auditory hallucination, right? The auditory hallucination sounds are so
Is it scary?"
Chi Feichi: "..."
Well, he knew why his sister looked at him with that 'uncomprehensible but a little worried' look.
Because there is something wrong with Munch's mental state.
In fact, it can be seen from the creative background of the three paintings "Scream", "Despair" and "Uneasiness" that Munch went out for a walk with his friends. Because he was tired, he stood by the railing to rest alone. He seemed to hear the sharp sound that resounded throughout the world.
He screamed and saw the bloody sky, and was frightened and despaired about it, not because Munch played too much, but because Munch's mental state was not very healthy.
Munch's mother died very early, and little Munch was raised by his father when he was young. Munch's father suffered from mental illness and always conveyed his fear of hell to Munch and Munch's brothers and sisters.
, later, Munch's other brother and favorite sister passed away. During Munch's youth, his father also passed away, and Munch's little sister was also diagnosed with mental illness, and Munch himself was also frail and sickly.
Both Munch's parents died young, and only one of his five siblings was married, and he died a few months after the wedding.
It can be said that Munch has been shrouded in illness and death all his life, and the level of suffering in this life is comparable to that of Ikekana.
Therefore, Munch himself was in poor health and not in a very good mental state, and most of his works were full of death and horror.
