One of the most famous paintings in the world is going on the auction block.
Norwegian artist Edward Munch's painting "The Scream" will be sold Wednesday at Sotheby's in New York.
It's one of only four original versions of the painting -- and the only one is private hands. The winning bidder will have to hand over a lot of cash.
The painting is said to be owned by the son of a friend of Munch.
It's the only one to feature the 1892 poem Munch wrote that inspired the work.
The poem is hand-painted on the original frame.
