Customer in Bergen at Noon Light
by Jordan Haney
A narrow, wet cobblestone alley in Bergen’s Bryggen district reflects the overcast winter sky, flanked by leaning, multi-colored wooden warehouses with peeling white paint. A local vendor in a bright yellow raincoat stands behind a small wooden cart, arranging fresh cod fillets on a metal tray, while a customer in a heavy wool coat holds a blue and white porcelain mug, likely containing hot coffee or gløgg. Steam rises visibly from the mug, against the damp, gray air. The scene is alive with the texture of rough timber, slick stone, and the vibrant, practical clothing of locals navigating the chilly noon light. A black umbrella stand sits empty near the cart’s edge, hinting at the sudden Norwegian showers.
