"June Morning," Camille Pissarro, 1873.

Appropriate for today, eh? This was part of the legendary first exhibition of Impressionist art, and created all sorts of controversy. Hard to imagine now, people viewing this painting as strange or offensive, but they did. Time has a way of blunting sharp edges.

From the Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe, Germany.
