Iris by Vincent van Gogh, 1889
A blue iris stands among tall, sword-shaped green leaves and rising stems, with buds and small yellow flowers scattered through dense, swirling green grass. Short, rhythmic brushstrokes in greens, blues and yellows give the painting an energetic surface, and the flower is set low in the composition.
