Georgia O'Keeffe
(1887– 1986)
 

Georgia Totto O'Keeffe 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 paintings of natural forms, particularly flowers and desert-inspired landscapes, which were often drawn from and related to places and environments in which she lived.

<i>With its brilliant color, dramatic luminosity, and simplified forms, Red Hills, Lake George typifies the distinctive approach to landscape painting Georgia O’Keeffe, as well as other artists that were part of Alfred Stieglitz’s circle. Within her oeuvre, this is a transitional work, presaging the stark drama of her later New Mexico landscapes, while also paying homage to her earlier experiences out west and at Lake George.</i>
