That's not the actual painting

But it is really close, which is the joke.

Is it so? I mean really close?

Yes, it's a painting of a... dog

I still see a dog but this time with its tongue out and a big black nose.

Ruined forever

The others on the pier don't seem to concerned about anything..
Looks more like this painting should have been called, "The 'Oh shit, I think I left my wallet on the bench back there'."

They could be looking the other way, but I always understood the scream to be internally anyway. Maybe due to existential crisis... or due to a forgotten wallet.

Maybe they stepped in dog shit and now they feel like a dog... I'm getting flashbacks to the torture that was school... maybe that's the point of the scream... AAAHHH

Interesting note: Some think the red sky was what Much actually saw. Krakatoa had exploded 10-years earlier and the skies were still red.

10 years of bloodred sky seem like an appropriate reason to scream

Well, they did edit the image to make it look more like a dog.

I hadnt seen the original in a while and actually thought it looked like this.

That's why they can only see the dog, duh!

As others have said, this is a doctored version of the painting.

Title suggestion: 'The Bark' or 'The Woof'

*I changed my mind. Neither of those. Instead - 'The Howl'. Works for both!
