Roselles i blat en un marge de Sant Fruitós de Bages.
=================
Poppies (roselles in catalan) and wheat in a field near St. Fruitós de Bages, Catalonia.
So the set got Homer's car, which I modified slightly for the display, but no car for Marge. This was a quick build (along with Ned's Geo) near the end of the deadline so it's somewhat featureless.

Marge Champion, born 2 September 1919, is an American dancer and actress. At 14, she was hired as a dance model for Walt Disney's for Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937). Later, Champion formed a highly successfully dancing team with her husband Gower Champion in many MGM musicals of the 1950s, and in their own TV series. She also became a well-known choreographer.
Marge Champion was born as Marjorie Celeste Belcher in 1919, in Los Angeles, California, to Hollywood dance director Ernest Belcher and his wife, Gladys Lee Baskette (née Rosenberg). Her older half-sister, Lina Basquette, was already acting in silent films at the age of twelve. Lina was the daughter of her mother's first husband, Frank Baskette, who had committed suicide. Marjorie began dancing at an early age as her sister had done. She began dancing as a child under the instruction of her father, Ernest Belcher, a noted Hollywood ballet coach who trained Shirley Temple, Cyd Charisse, and Gwen Verdon. She studied exclusively with her father from age five until she left for New York. She credits her good health and long career to her father's teaching principles: careful, strict progression of activity, emphasis on correct alignment, precise placement of the body, attention to detail, and to the totality of dynamics and phrasing. Her first dance partner was Louis Hightower. In 1930, she made her debut in the Hollywood Bowl at age 11 in the ballet 'Carnival in Venice'. By age twelve, she became a ballet instructor at her father's studio. She was hired by The Walt Disney Studio as a dance model for their animated film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (William Cottrell, a.o., 1937). Her movements were copied to enhance the realism of the animated Snow White figure. In one of the film's most plasmatic moments, Belcher obligingly served as model (wrapped in baggy overcoat) for two dwarfs at once, when for the 'Silly Song' dance, Dopey gets on Sneezy's shoulder to dance with (also modeled by Belcher) Snow White. Belcher later modeled for characters in other animated films: the Blue Fairy in Pinocchio (Norman Ferguson, a.o., 1940) and Hyacinth Hippo in the Dance of the Hours segment of Fantasia (James Algar, a.o., 1940), a ballet parody that she also helped choreograph. She also recalls doing some modeling for Mr. Stork in Dumbo (Samuel Armstrong, a.i., 1941). In 1937, Marge Belcher married the 12- years-older Art Babbitt, a top animator at Disney and creator of Goofy. They divorced in 1940.
Marge Belcher appeared in several stage musicals and plays on Broadway as a performer. She made her New York debut in 'What's Up' (1943). She also performed in 'The Dark of the Moon' (1945) as the Fair Witch, and 'Beggar's Holiday' (1946) having multiple roles. In 1947, Marge Belcher married the dancer Gower Champion. Belcher had met Gower when she was 12 years old in the ninth grade at Bancroft Junior High and that's when their romance started. After marrying in 1947, their reputation as a dance team soon spread, as well as Gower’s talent as a choreographer, and Hollywood took notice. As a dance team, the Champions performed in a series of MGM musicals of the 1940s and 1950s. Their first MGM musical was Till the Clouds Roll By (Richard Whorf, 1946). Later musicals for MGM were Show Boat (George Sidney, 1951), and Everything I Have Is Yours (Robert Z. Leonard, 1952). Other films with Gower included Mr. Music (Richard Haydn, 1950), with Bing Crosby, Give a Girl a Break (Stanley Donen, 1953), Jupiter's Darling (George Sidney, 1955) with Esther Williams, and Three for the Show (H.C. Potter, 1955) with Betty Grable. MGM wanted the couple to remake Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers films, but only one, Lovely to Look At (Mervyn LeRoy, 1952), a remake of Roberta (William A. Seiter, 1935), was completed. The Champions returned to the stage. Gower preferred choreography to performing and racked up nine Tony Awards for Best Choreography or Direction. During the summer of 1957, the Champions had their own TV series, The Marge and Gower Champion Show, a situation comedy with song and dance numbers. Marge played a dancer and Gower a choreographer. Real-life drummer Buddy Rich was featured as a fictional drummer named Cozy. Marge made her last Broadway appearance in '3 for Tonight' in 1955. She also worked as a choreographer or assistant, including 'Lend an Ear' in 1948 as an assistant to the choreographer; 'Make a Wish' in 1951, as an assistant to Gower Champion; and 'Hello, Dolly!' in 1964 as a special assistant. They had two sons, Blake and actor Gregg Champion. By 1960, they began drifting apart as Marge wanted to devote more time to the family. They divorced in 1973. In 1977, Marge married director Boris Sagal. The following year, she served as a dialogue and movement coach for the TV miniseries, The Awakening Land (Boris Sagal, 1978), adapted from Conrad Richter's trilogy of the same name. It was set in the late 18th-century Ohio Valley. Sagal was killed in 1981, in an accident during the production of the miniseries World War III. She became stepmother to Boris' five children, who include Katey, Jean, Liz, and Joey Sagal. Marge has also worked as a dance instructor and choreographer in New York City. In 1982, she made a rare television acting appearance on the TV series Fame, playing a ballet teacher with racial bias against African-American students. Later, she was the choreographic associate of the stage musical 'Stepping Out' (1987) and appeared as Emily Whitman in the Broadway stage revival of Stephen Sondheim's 'Follies' (2001). She was 81 at the time. Last year, Marge Champion quietly turned 100.
