n. 374 An oak on the town

This large copper, engraved in November 1998, was curiously forgotten in a drawer (it dates from the time when most trees were planted in the area of Toccalmatto) and yet, the great oak and its huge clump - which remember the primordial form of the egg - deserve to continue their journey. Symbolic image of the often conflicting relationship between the city and the countryside, the poetic atmosphere of the air journey is enriched with a precious Oxford Bible paper sheet applied on a Hahnemuehle printing sheet.
