Two Sketches of Trees

Britische Grafik 1851–1867,

The image consists of two landscape sketches laid out vertically. The top sketch shows a dirt path extending towards the horizon with trees and hills depicted under a cloudy sky. Loose and impressionistic brushstrokes create a textured appearance in earthy greens, browns, blues, and whites. The bottom sketch shows trees closer to the viewer with a similar style and color palette to the top sketch. The sketches portray landscapes with a relaxed and fluid technique.
