In nearly all of Driesbach's printed works there is a man in a top hat and glasses integrated into the narrative. Likely meant as figures of himself, Driesbach is embedded in the surreal landscapes he has created on the plate, as if bearing witness to the action--surreal or otherwise--going on all around him.
