Print
A vertically oriented cliché-verre print in black ink with dense, scratchy strokes depicts a cluster of trees. Overlapping lines create a dark central mass of foliage. To the right, a tall, slender tree trunk stands against the white background. The foreground features horizontal, scribbled lines, while fine, wiry strokes extend from the top right. A signature in the lower left completes the image's high-contrast, textured composition.
