Tulla larsen biography of michael

The end between Tulla Larsen and Edvard Munch was explosive than what you would expect. Though it is hard to capture the event's details, there is a clear record of its aftermath.

Munch received a gunshot that claimed one of his left fingers, and Larsen rebounded from the relationship very fast and got married to Arne Kavli, a Norwegian painter.

This is the story that inspired the painting known as Tulla Larsen by Edvard Munch. As an artist, Munch needed to do something to indicate the end of his relationship with Larsen.
