"The Regentag portfolio (Look at it on a Rainy Day) is one of Hundertwasser's major works. With their innovative and technically meticulous execution, these screenprints illustrate the artist's distinctive style and pictographic language. The title of the portfolio, Regentag, also stands as a metaphor for the artist's work and character: the word Regentag, which translates "rainy day", is a part of his name and personality; it is also the name of the small ship which became an exodus for the lonely visionary to open horizons of paradise."
