A vibrant and gestural lithograph by Joan Mitchell, *Flower II* bursts with expressive, painterly strokes of bold color that reflect her signature Abstract Expressionist sensibility. Printed in rich hues on Arches 88 paper, the work captures the spontaneous energy and emotional intensity for which Mitchell was celebrated, translating the freedom of her painted canvases into the lithographic medium. Part of the Bedford series, this full-sheet work exemplifies her ability to evoke the essence of nature through abstraction rather than literal representation.
