Description from the seller

Signature photo and piece of cloth, 24.5 x 18.5 cm. Starting Friday, November 13, 1998, 178 trees were wrapped with 55,000 square meters of woven polyester cloth (used in Japan every winter to protect trees from frost and heavy snow) and 23 kilometers of rope. The wrapping process was completed on November 22.

The trees are located in the park surrounding the Beyeler Foundation and in the adjacent meadow, as well as along the stream in Berower Park, northeast of Basel, on the German border. Their heights ranged from two meters to 25 meters, with diameters ranging from one meter to 14.5 meters.
