Four years later, Edvard Munch’s masterpiece is back on display to be admired. An exhibition welcomes the restored picture after the vicissitudes that it has been through.
Four years have passed since Munch’s most famous painting was stolen from the Munchmuseet, the museum dedicated to the artist in Oslo. On 22nd August, two gunmen entered the museum rooms and in broad daylight, under the visitors’ eyes, stole the “Scream”, as well as another painting by Munch, the “Madonna”. The robbery left all the museum operators astonished and thorough investigations began immediately. In 2006, the canvases were found by Norwegian police.
