Knotwilg en es c. 1820 - 1833

"Knotwilg en es" is a detailed black and white drawing of two trees by J. Bernard, created sometime between 1820 and 1833. The print depicts a willow tree with a knotted trunk on the left, labelled "Tronco de Salce," and an ash tree with a more traditional, upright trunk on the right labelled "Tronco de Frassino". This artwork demonstrates the artist's interest in the detailed representation of botanical subjects. The precise hatching and stippling techniques used in the drawing create a lifelike impression of the trees' bark, branches, and leaves.
