The Dreadful Painting is based on ''The Scream'' by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch. Munch recalled that he had been out for a walk at sunset when suddenly the setting sunlight turned the clouds "a blood red". He sensed an "infinite scream passing through nature". Scholars have located the spot to a fjord overlooking Oslo, and have suggested other explanations for the unnaturally orange sky, ranging from the effects of a volcanic eruption to a psychological reaction by Munch to his sister’s commitment at a nearby lunatic asylum.

Real-world information

The Scream

The Dreadful Painting is based on The Scream by Norwegian artist Edvard Munch. Munch recalled that he had been out for a walk at sunset when suddenly the setting sunlight turned the clouds "a blood red". He sensed an "infinite scream passing through nature". Scholars have located the spot to a fjord overlooking Oslo, and have suggested other explanations for the unnaturally orange sky, ranging from the effects of a volcanic eruption to a psychological reaction by Munch to his sister’s commitment at a nearby lunatic asylum.

Notably, the Munch Museum, Munch's official estate, continues to be stringent in maintaining their legal ownership of the artist's work: The Scream in particular is a prominent source of copyright enforcement for the estate, which responds quickly to cases of copyright infringement and is rigid in maintaining control over any and all use of the painting's image. This strict system of legal enforcement appears to be the reason behind the Dreadful Painting's absence from Animal Crossing onwards.[citation needed]
