Bosbrand in het Forêt de Fontainebleau 1908

"Bosbrand in het Forêt de Fontainebleau" is an etching by Johannes Mattheus Graadt van Roggen, created in 1908. The artwork depicts a solitary, charred tree in the Fontainebleau Forest, rendered in a realistic style. Van Roggen was known for his landscapes, and this print captures the stark beauty of a post-fire environment. The artist's masterful use of line and shading conveys the texture of the bark and the sense of desolation in the aftermath of the fire. The print is a testament to van Roggen's technical skill and his fascination with the natural world.
