Artist, French, 1837 - 1900

The image shows a narrow path flanked by tall, leafless trees creating a tunnel effect. The path leads into the distance, lined with trees that gradually diminish in size. The scene features a sepia tone, giving a monochromatic feel with shades of brown and beige. The path is lined with undergrowth and shrubs, and mist or haze obscures the end of the path in the distance.
