A Fantastic Animated Version of Edvard Munch’s Painting ‘The Scream’ Set to a Pink Floyd Soundtrack

The classic painting “The Scream” by Edvard Munch is brought to life in a fantastic animation directed by Sebastian Cosor of Safe Frame, perfectly set to the song “The Great Gig In The Sky” by Pink Floyd.

I was walking along a path with two friends – the sun was setting – suddenly the sky turned blood red – I paused, feeling exhausted, and leaned on the fence – there was blood and tongues of fire above the blue-black fjord and the city – my friends walked on, and I stood there trembling with anxiety – and I sensed an infinite scream passing through nature.

– Edvard Munch, 1893
