About this work

This image shows a black-and-white print of bare tree branches crisscrossing against a dark sky. The branches are thick and tangled, with a few small buds just starting to appear. The edges of the print are sharp, and the contrast between light and dark is strong. The title *First Blossom* is printed in bold letters at the bottom, along with the names *Gilbert and George* and the year *1979*. This suggests it’s part of a limited set of prints. If you like this style, check out the technique *chiaroscuro*.
