Interesting connection

Very interesting article; I was not aware of this artist before now. Looking at these two artworks, I have to wonder if Munch was not inspired by Bergh's work. Of course I have nothing to substantiate this, but it would be an interesting topic for further research. Lithoderm 17:08, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I was quite surprised that we didn't already have an article on Bergh, so I couldn't resist creating it. :-) The leftorium 17:14, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
