Can you see what the girls in this painting are doing? They are lighting lanterns outside, very carefully. The girls are standing in the middle of a colourful summer meadow with different flowers. We can see carnations, lilies, and roses.

 

The title of this painting is Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose, which comes from a very well-known song at that time. It was painted by the American artist John Singer Sargent.
