What the museum label doesn't tell you
Look at the eyes: every pale face stares straight at you, but none of them look at each other. They press forward in a solid block, squeezed against the edge of the canvas, each one utterly alone. In 1889 Munch wrote that walking this same street he felt every face watching him while his body shook and sweated - this is that feeling made paint. Arne Eggum traces it to Ensor's masks. The poplars on the right twist like black flames, sealing off any exit. Does the crowd shelter you, or hunt you down?
