Thistle is a 1661 unspecified by Carlo Dolci, held at Kunsthistorisches Museum.
The painting depicts a large thistle plant with dark green leaves and a prickly stem. The plant is set against a dark background, which makes the thistle stand out. The thistle is painted in a realistic style, with attention to detail in its texture and shape. The artist's use of shading and lighting creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the painting.
