Les trois arbres près du rocher is a 1646 by Herman Naiwinx, a Baroque work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This print shows three bare trees standing near a rocky outcrop. The branches twist sharply against a sky filled with fine, parallel lines. Below, a winding river cuts through the scene, with small bushes dotting the banks. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to suggest movement in the trees and water. The rocks in the background look rough and uneven, adding texture to the scene. Check out more about Baroque to see how this style shaped landscapes.
Herman Naiwinx (1623–1670) was a Dutch artist, born in Schoonhoven.
