Poppies are rendered in delicate tones against an overcast sky in light rain. Spring and summer months around the Kennemer dunes of Noordwijk aan Zee and Zandvoort offer multiple phases of weather, often within a single hour. Raindrops cling to flowers and the soaked ground gives life to the green between the sands. Poppies symbolise remembrance and the fragile beauty of life, while the falling drops give energy and motion to the piece. We are reminded that the landscape is restless, fragile and ever changing.
