The Honeybee and Fighting Temeraire

A honeybee visits a David Austin English Rose, «Fighting Temeraire», in my garden. I suspect Austin named the rose for the glowing rose-gold sunset colors in J.M.W. Turner's painting of the warship, HMS «Fighting Temeraire», painted in 1838. I selected «The Flight of the Bumblebee» by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov to accompany the piece. The music depicts a scene from Rimsky-Korsakov's opera, «The Tale of Tsar Saltan», where a handsome young price is transformed into a bumblebee. Performed by the United States Army Band.
