Louise Bourgeois’s *La tapisserie de mon enfance—montains in Aubusson (The Tapestry of My Childhood—Mountains in Aubusson)* from 1947 is a delicate drawing composed of densely layered lines that evoke a mountainous landscape. The work is considered to be autobiographical, reflecting the artist's memories of her childhood in France. It's a prime example of Bourgeois's exploration of themes of memory, identity, and the subconscious, which she would later explore in her sculptures and installations. The meticulous line work creates a sense of depth and texture, emphasizing the intricate and often complex nature of human experiences.
