It reminded me of this very famous painting - below - by Claude Monet. (For years it hung in a Habitat frame on the wall above my ironing board.)
Monet showed this picture at the first Impressionist exhibition, held in 1874. This is his wife, Camille, and son, Jean in a field of poppies. I notice 2 others at the top of the slope but don't know who they are. Argenteuil is, today, a suburb on the north-west side of Paris.
Today is the Summer Solstice; it has rained all day long and as I write this at 9 pm it is ... still raining!
