Aegina, The Black Forest is a 1913 ink by Joseph Pennell, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a dark forest with tall trees and a path leading into the distance. The trees are densely packed, with some trunks and branches visible in the foreground. The overall mood is somber and mysterious. The artist has used a range of dark grays and blacks to create a sense of depth and atmosphere in the forest. The trees seem to loom over the path, casting long shadows that stretch out into the distance. The painting is done in a lithograph style, which gives it a sense of texture and grain.
