Trees and Undergrowth, 1885. Creator: Garden William Fraser (British, 1856-1921)
Trees and Undergrowth, 1885. Gardens work was based on the rendering of minute detail with painstaking brushwork and handling of colour. Here, he describes an insignificant corner of the Bedford landscape: a tangled thicket in which dry grasses and saplings commingle. Bare branches stretch across a bright blue sky, creating a pattern as intricate as a spiders web. This may have been the drawing that Garden exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1885 with the title Early Spring in the Woods. A pale green haze in the grass, the azure sky, and scattered wildflowers suggest the promise of spring

This print titled "Trees and Undergrowth, 1885" by Garden William Fraser transports viewers to a serene corner of the Bedford landscape. Known for his meticulous attention to detail and masterful brushwork, Fraser skillfully captures the essence of this seemingly insignificant thicket. Dry grasses intertwine with young saplings, creating a tangle of natural beauty.
