Jackson Hollow, Bertha E. Jaques
Jackson Hollow, 1897

Bertha E. Jaques

1863–1941 · 1 work

Bertha E. Jaques’s Jackson Hollow invites a slow look at a wooded waterside. Etched lines gather into dark trees, exposed roots and reflected shapes, then loosen across the light ground. The print offers a landscape at an intimate scale: follow the changing density of its marks to see how branches, banks and water become distinct.
