What Is The Idiot Munching On In Oslo?

When The Idiot didn’t see original versions of Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” at the ongoing exhibition of his paintings at the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, he flew to Oslo to visit the newish (October 2021) Munch Museum to catch them there.

Here’s what he saw at what is locally called The Munch.
