Trees and Shrubs

Paul Cézanne, 1883/1887

This image shows a sketch from a slightly elevated perspective without a horizon line. The upper section features dense, diagonal pencil strokes indicating a shaded area or foliage. Below, lighter, dispersed lines represent leaves or plants in angular and circular forms. The image is monochromatic, created with pencil on paper, emphasizing contrast between light and shadow. The composition conveys movement through varying weights and directions of pencil strokes.
