Georgia O’Keeffe’s close-up paintings of flowers and landscapes of the Southwest are works of elegant simplicity that capture the essence of each of her subjects. Known for her original approach to her art and her independent spirit, she preferred not to limit her paintings by interpreting them, commenting, “I think I’d rather let the painting work for itself than help it with the word.” Presented here are 30 eloquent paintings by one of the most revered and inventive of all 20th-century American artists.

From the turn of the 20th century to her death at 98, Georgia O’Keeffe (American, 1887–1986) completed more than 2,000 works—an oeuvre that ultimately ensured her place as one of the most highly regarded American artists of all time. Among the first female painters to garner both widespread popularity and critical acclaim, O’Keeffe first came to the public’s attention during the 1920s and 1930s through her sensual flower paintings and the series of portraits of her taken by photographer and art collector Alfred Stieglitz, whom she married. In 1929 she traveled to Taos, New Mexico, and was so impressed by the desert landscape that she eventually moved to the area. There she devoted her creative energies to capturing the simple forms and spiritual essence of the land.
