Alfred Hutty

Edisto Live Oak
1944

Black and white etching of a majestic tree with a thick, gnarled trunk and extensive branches draped with Spanish moss. The scene is serene, with the tree's roots spreading into the ground and its canopy casting dappled shadows. The artwork is signed by the artist in the lower right corner. The etching is centered on a larger, off-white paper with rough edges, suggesting it may be a print or a plate from a larger collection.
