About the piece

Painted in 1894, 'Anxiety' is a quintessential example of Edvard Munch’s Expressionist style. The work depicts a procession of figures with mask-like faces, set against the same turbulent, blood-red sky found in his most famous work, 'The Scream,' evoking a profound sense of collective tension and atmospheric drama.
