The brown rose

Donald Baechler's Family I, 1986 etching, depicts a simple line-drawn figure alongside dark geometric shapes on a textured background.

// Family I by Donald Baechler, an etching created in 1986, combines simple, almost childlike linework with abstract geometric forms. This limited edition print juxtaposes a rudimentary figure—drawn in bold, unrefined lines—with dark, solid rectangles and squares scattered across the background. The figure, with its exaggerated features and carefree stance, contrasts sharply against the formal rigidity of the shapes, evoking a playful yet introspective quality. Baechler’s work often explores themes of memory and nostalgia, and Family I presents a whimsical, almost naive interpretation that invites the viewer to reflect on family and identity.

What is figurative art?

Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.
