"Door een storm getroffen boom" is a pencil drawing created by Willem Cornelis Rip in 1874. The artwork depicts a tree that has been struck by a storm, with its branches broken and twisted. Rip's detailed rendering of the tree's gnarled trunk and broken branches creates a sense of the power of nature and the fragility of life. This study of a tree, possibly an oak, is a testament to Rip’s fascination with nature and his talent for capturing its beauty in a realistic and detailed way.
