Copyright© The Estate of Eva HesseMore Information
This youthful work by Hesse has its roots in the dense, mysterious woodland scenes by German Renaissance artists such as Albrecht Altdorfer and Albrecht Dürer. At the same time, it presages the hanging, drooping lines of Hesse's later sculptures and constructions.
