How intriguing! I did a Google image search and indeed this is from Christo and Jeanne-Claude. The photo is on their website http://christojeanneclaude.net/ and wikipedia also has a paragraph about the project.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention, Margaret. I so enjoy following this blog: you have a remarkable appetite for all things art-related and bring your special "lens" to everything you post here.
These lovely photos immediately reminded me of the extraordinary webs over trees that we've seen from time to time in Aberdeenshire. These are woven by ermine moth larvae. Googling reveals amazing photos here in the UK and across the world. A particularly beautiful photo of spiders' webs over trees in Pakistan will stick long in the mind (here http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2195935/The-hungry-caterpillars-Thousands-moth-larvae-weave-giant-web-shrubbery-protect-importantly-food-predators.html). Thank you also for introducing me to Christo and Jean-Claude - more delights!
These are very beautiful art-trees.
Margaret, your intelligent voice is so worth sharing. Thank you. xo
