The names you gave the colors of some of the roses and iris are so evocative, I can see them instantly. I love the gardens, but I have to say, I couldn't help but imagine the huge amount of work they entail. Great job security for someone.

Thanks Karl! Coming up with names to describe colors is one of my favorite pastimes 😄 And I had the same thought about the amount of work that place must be!

Lovely descriptive piece, Anne! You've entered a beautiful flowering world with Monet, and the description of your first childhood impression of a painting is quite captivating.

I love everything about this post from the descriptions to the photos. Monet is my favorite artist, and Giverny has always had a dreamlike allure for me too. I have always wondered what it looks like unimpressionized. Seeing your

pictures, it appears to deserve the attention given to it by its artist.
