    Description

    Artist M.R. Ashton's exquisitely detailed rendition of a famous photograph of Georgia O'Keeffe, perfectly framed in an elegant vintage frame with golden accents.

    Georgia O'Keeffe (November 15, 1887 – March 6, 1986) herself, was an American modernist painter and draftswoman whose career spanned seven decades and whose work remained largely independent of major art movements. Called the "Mother of American modernism", O'Keeffe gained international recognition for her meticulous paintings of natural forms, particularly flowers and desert-inspired landscapes,

    Philippe Halsman took this photograph while visiting Georgia O'Keeffe at her Abiquiu ranch in 1948.

    Another image from the same sitting illustrated 'The Southwest: Sun and Scenery Attract New Colonists,' a photographic essay published in the March 1949 issue of LIFE magazine.
