向日葵
His sunflowers were probably mutants.
他的向日葵也许是变异体。
Did you ever notice that van Gogh's iconic sunflowers don't look like the ones you've passed by on road trips? That's because, according to researchers like John Burke of the University of Georgia, van Gogh was not painting your standard sunflower, but rather variants holding a singlemutant gene, thus resembling "wooly, chrysanthemum-like" flowers, reminiscent of "fuzzy pom-poms stuck on sunflower stems."
你是否注意过梵高的向日葵和你在路边看到的不太一样?根据乔治亚大学研究者John Burke的发现，梵高并没有在画你们所认识的向日葵，而是在画一个变异种的向日葵，所以看起来像一些毛茸茸的菊花样的花，让人联想到一战时那机关炮打在了向日葵的茎上。
