Poppy Field in a Hollow near Giverny
This conversation is connected to Poppy Field in a Hollow near Giverny.
Claude Monet painted Poppy Field in a Hollow near Giverny in 1885, during the years he was settling into Giverny and painting the surrounding countryside obsessively. A dense drift of red poppies fills the foreground, scattered marks breaking up the greens and blues as the land dips into a shallow valley. The hills rise gently behind, softened by brushwork that blurs trees into atmosphere.
