Evening or The Yellow Boat,
:10:03
Munch is attempting,
for the first time in his work,
:10:07
to depict jealousy.
:10:10
And not merely
the event of jealousy,
:10:12
but its psychology
and innermost quiver.
:10:18
I wonder if something
:10:20
is going on
:10:22
between her and Jæger.
:10:24
What shall I do then?
:10:28
At any rate, I believe
that the idea must be
:10:34
that one lives according to
:10:35
one's particular possibilities,
:10:38
that one has a duty
to develop these possibilities,
:10:42
that one has a duty to... well...
to expand oneself,
:10:48
to acquire more knowledge,
a greater breadth.
:10:55
I think that leads to greater freedom
in the long run.
:11:02
This canvas marks a major development
in the work of Edvard Munch.
:11:06
It develops still further
the flat application of colour areas,
:11:10
the lack of perspective,
:11:12
the tension between
space and surface.
:11:15
It is dismissed by the critics
as a "sketch".
:11:20
Edvard Munch is now seeking to take
the practical artistic consequences
:11:25
of what lies behind
the theories of the Symbolists.
:11:29
He wants to realize them
in all-powerful subjectivity,
:11:33
to pass on what he and he alone,
experiences from the motif
:11:38
at the very moment that he grips it,
:11:41
or that he is gripped by it.
:11:44
I walked along the road with two friends.
The sun went down.
:11:50
I felt it like a melancholy sigh.
:11:54
Suddenly the sky became blood red.
I stopped.
:11:59
I leaned against the fence
tired to death.
