One of Keeffe’s magnificent flower paintings, this one depicts four large jimson weed blossoms in the shape of a pinwheel. Simplified colors teamed with a rhythmic play of light and shade enhances the freshness of the flowers. Keeffe possessed an infinite fondness for these flowers irrespective of its toxic seeds. However, this work was commissione...
Also known as Black Iris III, this is another of Keeffe’s flower paintings, though linked with a lot of controversies. Linda Nochlin, an art historian, interpreted this painting to signify the female genitalia metaphorically. However, Keeffe rejected such claims saying that such meanings were derived by those looking at it though she had not given ...
This is the name collectively given to Keeffe’s series of four paintings centered around the theme of abstraction. The second painting in the series, suggests her love for music as the shape represents the curves seen in the violin. The pattern of this painting reflects Kandinsky’s influence on Keeffe.
This is a pictorial representation of Lake George where she had spent a considerable period, between 1918 and 1934. The shanty shown in the painting is said to be Keeffe’s studio which has been presented beautifully in solid colors but given a subdued appearance. The pink and orange flowers, green tree and grass as well as the curved structure of t...
Even referred to as Red Poppies, it shows two of the flowers from a close angle. The big flowers with vibrant colors are presented in such a way that they seem to explode on canvas, also giving them a sensual touch. The lack of a background compels the viewers to focus their attention upon the middle of the flowers directly.
The skull of a cow is presented in the foreground with a black vertical stripe below. While two vertical white and blue stripes are seen on the sides, the outer border is marked in red. Keeffe could have possibly followed the footsteps of the other musicians, painters, and artists of American descent and presented this portrayal in a bid to look fo...
Belonging to the series of cloudscape art which she produced during the second half of the 1960s, this one is a product of Keeffe’s imagination from what she saw outside her window during her journey by airplane. Being enamored by the beauty of the moving clouds, she puts her experience on canvas portraying white, puffy clouds just like a blanket a...
This is another significant painting of Keeffe, where an orchid is presented from a close up without any background. Like most of her flower paintings, this one too is said to have Freudian touch and evoke a sensual appeal. However, like always she has denied any sexual or erotic associations to her flower paintings.
Unlike her other flower paintings, this one has not been highly enlarged or presented abstractly. There is also an orange-pink background wonderfully contrasted with the green leaves and florets. The Maggie, as the name of the painting goes, is referred to Keeffe’s friend, Margaret Johnson, who lived close to her.
This painting shows a huge ponderosa pine in the D.H Lawrence Ranch, New Mexico, where Keeffe had once stayed with a wealthy American, Mabel Dodge Luhan, who was an art patron, also instrumental in bringing the modernists to Taos art colony. Keffee painted the tree as she reclined on a bench and looked at the night sky above. It is because of this ...
