Charles François Daubigny's "Marsh and Screen of Trees" is a delicate pencil drawing depicting a tranquil landscape scene. A line of trees stands silhouetted against a hazy sky, their forms defined by short, hatched lines. The foreground features a marsh filled with reeds and water, rendered with a similar hatched technique, creating a sense of depth and texture. This drawing is characteristic of Daubigny's focus on naturalism and his love for capturing the fleeting beauty of the French countryside. The work is currently on display at The Art Institute of Chicago.
