About this work

Landscape sketch showing a view of tree ferns and other vegetation in the dense Jamaican rainforest. At center left, a tall tree fern with a broad, arching canopy serves as the focus of the composition. At right, two other tree ferns are shown surrounded by thick foliage, while at left, similarly lush greenery helps frame the view. Above, blue sky is visible through a break in the jungle canopy.
