Poplars, Versailles (Versailles, les grands peupliers) 1924

"Poplars, Versailles (Versailles, les grands peupliers)" is a 1924 etching by Andre Dunoyer de Segonzac. The work depicts a cluster of tall trees, their branches reaching towards the sky, against a light background. The artist's characteristic use of bold, expressive lines creates a sense of movement and energy, and the simple composition highlights the natural beauty of the trees. This work is a fine example of Segonzac's later landscape style, characterized by an interest in the structure and form of nature, and a preference for expressive line over detailed realism.
