Default Identify this Flower?

Stewart Robert Hinsley schreef
One of the annual Papavers. I'm pretty sure it's not Papaver dubium. I'd
say either Papaver commutatum or Papaver rhoeas, but there's other
species in this group.

The quality of the picture does not allow observation of fine detail.

A quick browse on the internet shows a very popular cultivar to be
Papaver commutatum 'Ladybird' with distinct black markings, eg

Would be a fine satirical comment, assuming this is not an old cultivar.
