When my sister Linda saw my picture of jimsonweed, her artist's brain remembered this painting by Georgia O'Keeffe.  Thanks for sending it.  I love that artist, and this painting.

 

It was painted in 1932, and it is Jimsonweed!  The painting is 48 x 40 inches.  She painted several different ones, some with single blossoms, some with multiple blooms.  All breathtaking!!!  One of the Jimsonweed paintings sold in 2014 for 44.4 million dollars!!!!  Sotheby's (the auction house that sold it) shows this painting as the one, but other sources differ.  So... I don't know.  Can't trust everything you read on the internet.  But it was fun exploring.

Thanks, Linda, for reminding me of Georgia O'Keeffe.  

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!
