🖼 Wild Poppies, 1873
Oil on canvas

Vibrant red poppies scatter across a sunlit meadow, their loose brushstrokes capturing fleeting light and movement. Monet's 1873 masterpiece pioneered Impressionism's focus on optical sensation over detail, revolutionizing how artists perceived and rendered natural light.
