Untitled (Lush Tree and Parched Land)
View through Harvard Museums
An expanse of dry land rendered in sharp lines recedes towards a distant horizon in this monochromatic ink drawing. The cracked surface of the parched earth contrasts sharply with the delicate, spherical form of a banyan tree with its limbs gently bowing towards the ground.
