| The archetypal image of sexual congress/betrayal in the background <ref name="museum" /> — the faceless man and woman he clothed in black, she with red robe parted to display her nakedness while she reaches for the apple from the tree as her lover's first gift — is, in fact, the mind screen of the sufferer of jealousy whose brooding look out at us, filling half the canvas, articulates with care, dwarfing in size the drama in the background, yet chained to it.<ref>Edvard Munch and the Physiology of Symbolism ISBN 0838638910</ref> Perhaps all thinking entails projection, but Munch has hardwired it into the functioning of this painting, and has thus brought to visibility what is perhaps the most grisly feature of jealousy: it is spawned, it is bottomless, it is a creative fiction, it is an allegory of art inasmuch as it sovereignty births its own story.<ref>Northern Arts: The Breakthrough of Scandinavian Literature ISBN 0691125449</ref> | |||
