Roger these are amazing! I can't imagine figuring out how trees look from an aerial view without having seen it!
I love looking at the many species of trees grouped by the highway when riding around the country-I see all of that in this work.
Thank you so much for finding these treasures for us.

Joyce,

You are so welcome.

It's unbelievable that these were painted in the 1500's.

As I said in my intro. Most art at that time was purely of people. This man's love of landscape is amazing.

Roger
