About this work

This print shows a small forest of tall, skinny trees with bare branches. The trees stand close together, their trunks twisting upward. The ground is covered in tangled roots and bushes, all drawn in dark lines against a light background. The artist focused on the rough texture of the bark and the way branches spread out. It looks like they used a scratchy, line-heavy style to show every detail. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more prints like this.
