Edvard Munch was 18 and a student at the Royal Schopl of Drawing in Oslo when he completed this self portrait in 1882, the first of many hundreds. An almost ideally handsome young man at first and a decade on, long-boned, twitchy and in his late 50s looking consumed by life.

How fitting that the man was murdered by
the one he loved -- a poet by his muse
was killed, and by her plunging knife did die.
