Wooded Landscape with Fallen Branches, Etching

An etched woodland landscape shows a tall leafy tree on the right, a slender sapling at left, and a tangle of fallen branches across a sandy rise, with a winding dirt path leading toward a distant clearing under a cloudy sky. No cow-herd or sleeping figure is visible in the print, despite the record's title.
