Lithograph in Colors on Paper // Thistle by Donald Baechler, a 1999 lithograph, presents a bold, graphic rendering of a thistle in vibrant colors on paper. The oversized red flower head with a contrasting black stem and leaves dominates the composition, juxtaposed against a background collage of various visual elements, including portraits, silhouettes, and text snippets. Baechler's work often incorporates a mix of high and low culture, blending abstract and figurative elements that evoke both nostalgia and irony. The layering of images and patterns provides a textured, almost tactile quality, inviting viewers to explore its varied references and layered meanings.

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.
