Giverny's garden wasn't ready yet. Monet and his family had just arrived, a few weeks in. Boxes still to unpack. A whole outdoor world to rethink, to build from nothing. That would take decades. So for now, he made do with what he had. A field here. A vase of flowers there. This is a detail from a vertical canvas: Poppies in a Chinese Vase. Long before the water lilies, before the bridge, before the garden that would take over his life.
