If you want to find out more about Munch, Ibsen or Strindberg or would like to view Munch’s pictures, I recommend the following sites as well as the national libraries in Sweden and Norway whose staff usually speak humiliatingly good English. When seeking out obscure art books, I have found Thomas Heneage's shop in London to be very useful. I am not connected with it in any way but here is their site address in case you have hit a problem in finding a special book or catalogue: www.heneage.com.
