Artist
Oskar Bergman was a Swedish visual artist born in Stockholm. Bergman was self-taught and took much inspiration from his study trips to Germany, Italy and France. Bergman worked as an etcher and painter, with his paintings, which emulate an overpowering Swedishness, is valued today not only in Sweden, but also international artists.
