Sunset

Alphonse Legros

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a landscape drawing of a wooded area at sunset. The scene features two trees in the foreground, one on the left and one slightly to the right of center. The tree on the left has a slanted trunk and a rounded top with sparse foliage. The tree on the right has a straighter trunk and sparse branches. Both trees have light-colored trunks. In the background, there are more trees and bushes, with some areas darker than others. The sky above is light gray with diagonal lines, suggesting a sunset. The artist's signature, "A. Legros," is in the bottom-right corner. The entire scene is rendered in dark gray and black on a light gray background with a rough texture. The image has a thin border around it.
