Gothic Church Behind an Oak Grove with Tombs
A large oak tree fills the foreground of this brown-toned lithograph, its dense foliage framing a Gothic church with pointed spires and tall tracery windows behind it. Small tombs and a few figures stand in the grass beneath the branches, rendered in fine black ink lines with touches of white.
