That was brilliant on both their parts. And did wonders to get Absinthe banned. Being stuck with the only painting worth looking at being The Irises we have achieved a depth of interpretation which is quite satisfying. Reading from left to right.The red plants in the background Helianthemum or rock roses which are being supplanted by irises. At the top you can see various of the Helianthemum being transformed into Irises, specifically the yellow "tongues" of the flower signifying singing performing preachers and lawyers. Some of the roses have captured and killed the darkest of the flowers, transforming it into a pure white flower which is presented to the newly sprouted Irises as an ideal. Who would ever guess that a light skinned pale eyed red head who painted in direct sunlight all day every day would ever develop a cancer on his ear, anyway? |
