Norwegian artist Edvard Munch greatly influenced modern art by giving form to mysterious and dangerous psychic forces in such works as The Scream (1893), Anxiety (1894), and Ashes (1894). Munch’s massive output of graphic art—consisting of etchings, drypoints, lithographs, and woodcuts—also influenced later generations through his experimentation. His use of the actual grain of the woodblock for expressive purposes, for example, proved an especially successful experiment.
