Autumn Rain

Høstregn

Translation: Autumn Rain
Artist: Sigurd Bergmann
Year: 1984
Medium: Watercolour on textured paper

In Høstregn, Sigurd Bergmann turns a rainy autumn day into something quietly luminous. The scene is soft and gently blurred, as though viewed through a window streaked with mist. Trees in fiery tones of ochre, russet, and amber melt into one another, and two humble farmhouses — one red, one white — seem to emerge from the rain-drenched landscape like memories.

There’s a kind of romantic melancholy here, but it’s tender, not heavy. Sigurd doesn't shy away from the wetness of the season — he leans into it with watery brushstrokes and subtle transitions, giving us a feeling of air thick with scent and sound. The field in the foreground feels soaked and golden, while the sky swirls in soft greys and purples, full of motion and light.

This is a painting that knows something about waiting. About stillness and stories held in the soil. A quiet reflection on the rural soul of Norway — one that offers shelter, depth, and a little nostalgia.
