Auguste Louis Lepère

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a beige, aged-looking piece of paper with a rectangular border. The rectangular border has a thin brown line. Inside the border is a drawing of a tree with branches extending to the right. The top part of the tree is drawn in orange and the bottom part is drawn in brown. The tree's branches are covered with leaves. The text "LA Forêt de Fontainebleau" is written in large black letters in the center. Below that, smaller black text reads "Gravures originales de A. Lepère". At the bottom of the image, inside the border, there is red text that reads "Chez A. Desmoulins, Graveur Boulevard Jourdain - 60 - PARIS". The background of the image is the beige color of the paper. The edges of the paper are rough and torn.
