Odilon Redon, Trees in the Blue Sky, c. 1883 https://botfrens.com/collections/14377/contents/1135076

Belgian artist/patron Anna Boch liked to promote young or unknown artists, & was apparently the first & only buyer of van Gogh’s work during his lifetime. She continued to buy his work, such as ‘Peach Blossoms, La Crau’, after he died

Fox closed her eyes, felt the cold on her face She smiled at the darkness, lost in winter's brace Solstice had come, the promise of more light Nature's cycle was done by end of this night She wished all souls love with the return of the sun and #SolsticeBlessings for everyone
