Something besides the Scream, although that is a good example.

The Third of May 1808
By Francisco Goya

It shows someone who is about to be executed and you can clearly see the fear on his face.

The Scream by Edvard Munch...(not Dali)

Yes, the scream, by Edvard Munch. Although, i would suggest that the "emotion" being expressed there is not so much fear as terminal utter disgust with the human "condition" :))

Hey Alice,

So everyone got the obvious, but fear is a prominent theme in paintings of war and religion too.

"The spirit of Kunstwollen was widespread in Central Europe in
the early years of the twentieth century, as demonstrated by the work of
Austrian Oskar Kokoschka. Kokoschka was closely associated with the
German Expressionists through his relationship with Herwarth Walden of
Berlin and Walden's political and artistic journal, Der Sturm, which
Kokoschka published in Austria. Kokoschka's self-portraiture reveals a
sense of Kunstwollen similar to that found in the work of the German
Expressionists. Selbstbildnis (Brustbild mit Zeichenstift)
(Self-Portrait [Half-Length with Drawing Crayon], Fig. 5) was part of an
eleven-print series intended to accompany the lyrics of Bach's Cantata
60, "O Ewigkeit, du Donnerwort" ("O Eternity, Thou Word of Thunder"),
taken from Revelation 13 (Wingler and Welz 58). Kokoschka reputedly said
of the prints, "Certainly it's...fear that I'm depicting, but this
wasn't thought and laid out before hand" (qtd. in Field and Sievers)," site 1

"Landscape Art

As receptive human beings, we are continually aware of the land around us. This land may inspire the fear of danger, the rage of war, the prosperity of growth, or the sentimentality of a familiar home. When captured on canvas, land’s interpretations can be just as diverse and equally powerful." 2nd site

Guernica by Picasso. It shows the horrors of war, and the people in the painting look horrified!
