Georgia O'Keeffe: Skyscraping


I'm going to stay in New York for the Easter holidays and while I was looking at a guide book I was reminded of Georgia O'Keeffe's stylish 1920s cityscapes. She was perhaps best known for her flower paintings or her erotic relationship with the photographer Alfred Stieglitz that played out across two decades worth of their collective art, but this series of sorts captured the skyscraping promise of a city on the rise.

  1. Your blog is very "artsy-fartsy" > that's a compliment. Lovely artwork. I saw some Georgia O'keeffe in New Mexico visiting my sister there a few years ago. Kind regards from EAGAN daily photo in Minnesota, USA
