Edvard Munch and his male subjects

It's been a long time, since I explored the corridors of the Munch Museum and reminded myself of what other masterpieces apart from the well known ones, he has created.

Among his 1789 paintings, there are so many different settings and emotions, as well as interesting characters. What struck me the most this time, was his charismatic male subjects. I love the idea that Munch was a part of the "bohemian crowd", living in areas in Oslo which are now especially trendy among hipsters. Looking at some of his male subjects, I can see how he was influenced by his circle of friends.
