Trees Reflected in a Brook 

Claude-Joseph Vernet, a prominent French painter known for his landscapes and seascapes, created this pen and ink drawing titled "Trees Reflected in a Brook." This artwork features a detailed depiction of trees, reflected in a calm body of water, with a figure kneeling in the foreground. The meticulous use of hatching and cross-hatching create a sense of depth and texture, typical of Vernet's style. The scene evokes a serene and tranquil atmosphere, characteristic of the artist's landscape works.
