This print shows a dark forest scene with two figures sitting under a tree. The background is thick with tangled branches, while the figures are simple, blocky shapes with no clear faces. The colors are mostly black, white, and gray, giving it a stark, shadowy feel. The title *The Clearing* hints at an open space, but here the trees loom in—almost like the figures are trapped. The artist used bold lines and flat areas of color, which makes it feel more like a graphic design than a detailed drawing. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more prints like this.
