边草：杨花和柳絮

也说杨柳，基本上是zt。


茅盾《白杨礼赞》中的白杨 -- 英文为 poplar。

印象派大师莫奈笔下的白杨系列，如同他的草垛系列和教堂系列，只为扑捉光影的瞬间。

Monet, Poplars



The Poplars series paintings were made by Claude Monet in the summer and fall of 1891. The trees were in a marsh along the banks of the Epte River a few kilometers upstream from Monet's home and studio.

To reach his floating painting studio that was moored in a place he went by small boat up the nearby waterway to where it joined the mainstream.

The trees were along the riverside in single file, following along an S-curve. There were three groups of paintings — in one group the paintings have towering Poplars that go off the top edge of the canvas, in another group, there are seven trees and in another group three or four Poplars on the banks of the Epte River near Giverny.

The trees, which actually belonged to the commune of Limetz, were put up for auction before Monet had completed all of his paintings. At a certain point, Monet was forced into buying the trees because he still wasn't finished with his paintings. After he finished the series he sold the trees back to the lumber merchant who wanted them.
