Wanda Gág's 1926 wood engraving, "Tumble Timbers", is a whimsical depiction of a small, tilted house surrounded by lush foliage. The artist’s signature style is evident in the stylized, almost cartoonish details of the house and the exaggerated forms of the plants, which contribute to the print's charmingly humorous tone. The composition of the work, with the house dominating the center, creates a sense of intimacy and allows the viewer to connect with the subtle, yet expressive portrayal of a simple, everyday scene. "Tumble Timbers" is a prime example of Gág's signature style and is considered a significant piece in her artistic repertoire.
