Public domain art from the Getty Museum, digitally enhanced in high resolution.

Resembling an Art Nouveau drawing, the sinuous roots of this tree snake about a rock at the foot of a wall in the old royal park of Saint-Cloud, in the western suburbs of Paris. This picture is one of a group of studies of tree roots that Eugène Atget made in this park in 1906.

His views of trees are common, of their roots, more rare. It has been suggested that his images of components of trees may relate to his contemporaneous experience in photographing increasingly specific details of architectural elements. More fancifully (and anthropomorphically), as a tenacious man Atget may have admired the articulation of the tree's elaborated system for survival, both drawing up nourishment and anchoring itself to the ground.

By making this study of the interwoven organic textures of wood, stone, crumbling leaf, and earth, Atget expanded the range of the documentary photograph to include an unexpected subject seldom treated by other photographers. The seemingly commonplace aspect of this image gives it a surprising modernity.

CLICK FOR TIPS

When buying artworks figure out what you like. If you're just buying something you love, it's not difficult to make a decision!

If you hang an artwork at home and it doesn’t feel right, move it. Try putting it in different places, and see if it strikes an interesting dialogue with other works on your wall. Smaller artworks often work well near light switches, or hung low over a small piece of furniture like a bedside table.

Grouping works together can be really effective. Test out a group of frames by arranging them on the floor or a table top. If you’re feeling pro, use masking tape to mark out your very own tightly packed grouping!
