About this work

This sketch shows a quiet country scene with a fence running along a hillside. Twisted trees line the fence, their bare branches leaning in the wind. A few small figures stand near the fence, but they’re hard to make out. The ground looks rough, with patches of grass and dirt. The artist used quick, light lines to sketch the scene, almost like a quick note of what they saw. The trees and fence stand out sharply against the softer background.
