About this audio guide
This guide to MUNCH in Oslo starts with a single canvas from the museum's collection: Edvard Munch alone at a restaurant table in Weimar in 1906, a bottle of wine in front of him and two strange waiters at his back. It follows the painter through his hardest drinking years and into a Copenhagen clinic run by a flamboyant doctor he ended up painting. Worth hearing near the glass lift by the ground-floor café.
