You do not mention the red poppies, which are the important ones as I already have irises, chrysanthemums, peonies and morning glories.

More from Claude Monet
"Ah, gentlemen, I do not receive guests when I'm working, indeed. When I work, if I am interrupted, I lose all inspiration; I am lost. You understand, I'm chasing a band of colour."
"No, I'm not a great painter. Neither am I a great poet."
"The more I live, the more I regret how little I know."
"No one is an artist unless he carries his picture in his head before painting it, and is sure of his method and composition."
"I'm stuck here, cursing the weather and my fate."
About Claude Monet (1840-1926)
French Impressionist painter whose Impression, Sunrise (1872) named the movement, and whose late Water Lilies series anticipated 20th-century abstraction. Closely associated with Pierre-Auguste Renoir (Impressionist co-founder) and Camille Pissarro (Impressionist mentor figure). For an intellectual contrast, see the Académie des Beaux-Arts and the Salon, the French art establishment of the 1860s-70s — The Académie rejected Monet and the Impressionists throughout the 1860s-70s, forcing them to organize the 1874 Salon des Refusés that became Impressionism's launch. Monet's career is the canonical example of an artistic revolution that bypassed institutional gatekeeping — the Académie's rejection inadvertently created modernism.
