Linocuts are made by cutting a relief image in linoleum with a chisel or gouge.
Often, the image is sketched onto the piece of linoleum with a pencil before cutting away the areas around the image.
The areas that are cut away will not appear, and those that remain receive the ink, which is rolled across the image with a brayer (a roller), then pressed to paper to create the print.

In a page in his diary headed Nice 22.01.1892, Munch described his inspiration for the image thus:
“ 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.”

The Scream is one of the most reproduced paintings of all time. Does reproducing this image make it lose its power?
