The flower motif attracted Pop Art founder Andy Warhol (1923 – 1987) for more than 30 years. In the 1950s, he depicted flowers in a style similar to the 17th century Dutch still life painters, then approached the subject more abstractly in the 1960s, transforming hibiscus flowers and daisies into psychedelically colored blossoms. Creating his signature, multiple reproductions of everyday things, Warhol mass-produced silkscreened images from a single photo of a daisy, then drenched them in brilliant blues, reds, oranges and pinks to give each print of an edition a different appearance.
