but also money. we have a real bad infestation of the parasites called billionaires

"Poppy Field (Giverny)," Claude Monet, 1890/91.
Y'all know Monet by now.
This is one of four poppy-field paintings he did in the area around his home in Giverny. While not really a "series" per se, and they all had different poppy fields, they are now a treasured sight.
Here we have an almost-perfect summer scene...the blooming flowers, the trees in full leaf, the blue sky, and even the forested hill in the background all give a feeling of a lovely summer day.
Happy Flower Friday!
