The Oak by the Woods
1987

A black and white etching of a leafless tree in a barren landscape with delicate branches reaching upwards. The artwork is signed and numbered, suggesting it's part of a limited series. The background features faintly sketched trees and a lightly textured sky, conveying a serene, wintry scene.
