Landscape with trees, print, printmaker: Alfred Elsen, 1878, paper, chine collé, etching, intaglio printmaking technique, roulette, plate tone and roulette on chine collé, height 259 mm x width 210 mm, forest, wood, trees, A densely packed stand of tall trees fills the image, their straight trunks rising from a textured forest floor and extending upward into a network of branches and sparse foliage; the trunks and branches are rendered with fine, crosshatched lines giving a detailed, textured appearance, and the canopy creates a layered pattern against a pale background; areas of shadow and light appear on the ground and trunks, and thinner saplings and underbrush are visible between the larger trees, forming a sense of depth as the rows of trunks recede toward a lighter opening in the distance.
