They're really beautiful!
Just a curiosity: is there a story behind the second one? The one with the cross? Because it reminds me of an italian song.

Thanks!

I'm not aware of any specific story. I found the image on Google, but the pages linked to the image had it posted with the "In Flanders Fields" poem. I don't know if it's specifically linked to the poem.

Just curious but which Italian song?

Thank you for the explanation! :)

The song I was referring to is "La guerra di Piero" by Fabrizio De André.
Here you can listen to the song with an english translation on display: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmqPe4P5mkE

In short, it talks about a young men that during a war dies in a poppy field.

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you.

I can see why the song reminded you of that icon. Poor Piero. :o(

Yes, it's a very sad song!
