From the Rijksmuseum record
In this drawing Savery renders oddities of nature in an almost hair-raising manner. His gnarled trees resemble demonic creatures possessed by a will of their own. The drawing is squared in black chalk so that it can be transferred to a larger format. Perhaps it was intended as a preliminary study for a drawing or painting of larger dimensions
