To my untutored eye all the trees looked alike.
1834 January, [Edgar Allan Poe], “The Visionary”, in The Lady’s Book, page 41, column 2:The eye wandered from object to object, and rested upon none; neither the “Grotesques” of the Greek painters, nor the sculptures of the best Italian days, nor the huge carvings of untutored Egypt.
