Monet’s Poppy Field in a Hollow

When I think of Spring and Art, I think Claude Monet, who is perhaps my favorite artist of all time:
Claude Monet’s Poppy Field in a Hollow near Giverny is housed at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston. Monet was perhaps one of the most consistent and prolific practitioners of the Impressionist movement’s philosophy of “expressing one’s perceptions before nature, especially as applied to plein-air landscape painting.”
The Impressionist movement was named for Monet’s “Impression, Sunrise .”
