Untitled (Abstract Patterning of Light and Shadow on a Tree-lined Path) c. 1955

This abstract drawing, created by Herbert Bayer in the mid-1950s, depicts a tree-lined path. The artist uses simple black lines to create a sense of depth and perspective, capturing the play of light and shadow on the foliage. Bayer's signature, and the date, are visible in the lower right corner of the piece. The piece, executed in black ink on paper, showcases Bayer's fascination with abstract forms and his unique ability to distill natural elements into simplified, yet powerful, compositions.
