Bouquet in Blue Vase

Bukett i blå vase (1999)

Watercolor on paper
Sigurd Bergmann

In Bukett i blå vase — Bouquet in Blue Vase — Sigurd Bergmann brings his signature softness and sensitivity to a simple, joyful subject: a freshly gathered bouquet, loosely arranged in a translucent blue vase. Painted in 1999, this watercolor balances spontaneity with grace, allowing the colors to speak through light and space.

Loose red and yellow blossoms bloom with life, their forms only hinted at — like memories of flowers rather than botanically exact shapes. Lush green leaves fan out in expressive strokes, while the vase itself is rendered with a whisper of color, anchoring the composition without weight.

This work reveals Sigurd’s lightest touch — joyful, present, and full of affection for the everyday beauty around him. Bukett i blå vase is not just a still life; it’s a pause — a quiet moment of color and care, captured with heart.
