La terre (Earth) is a 1863 ink by Jules-Ferdinand Jacquemart, a Impressionism work, depicting Skull, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a simple, earthy scene. It's done in shades of brown and gray. The artist used lines and textures to create depth. The scene feels quiet and still. The lines are rough in some places, smooth in others. This mix of rough and smooth lines makes the scene feel more real.
