Birch
John Robert Cozens (1752-1797), aquatint and vernis mou, retouches in brush and ink, 1789
Some sets of Cozens’s prints of trees are more developed than others. In some of the published prints, the etched drawing appears without the aquatint hues. Here, for example, the aquatint which provides the contrast between the clouds and the trees is missing.
