This is a real picture, not a piece of art. It is of the Dead Vlei in Namibia. These trees have been dead for around 700 years. They have been scroched black and preserved by the sun - too dry for them to decompose. This area has some of the highest sand dunes in the world - which is what you see in the background. Below is another picture from a different angle.
