    About this ebook

    This is the definitive book on Georgia O’Keeffe’s work—selected, designed, and supervised by the artist herself, with her own text. It includes 108 magnificent full-color plates, some never reproduced elsewhere or publicly shown, and spans O’Keeffe’s entire career: from her intense, personal abstractions to her unique depictions of nature—flowers, bones, rocks, and landscapes.

      Book included a chronological catalogue which was helpful in showing how O'Keefe evolved in her
      technique, her psychological approach and her choice of painting subjects. My only disappointment
      was that the book was not as comprehensive as some others I've read. However, the author made
      some excellent art selections from the wide range of O'Keefe's offerings. The book had great insight
      and interesting interpretations. Good biography too.

    ACKNOWLEDGMENT

    I wish to acknowledge my debt first to Miss O’Keeffe and Mr. Alfred Stieglitz. In the preparation of the text Miss Dorothy Odenheimer and Mr. Patrick Thomas Malone helped with locating and summarizing much of the considerably extensive literature on the artist. Miss Petronel Lukens and Mr. G. E. Kaltenbach prepared the manuscript for the printer and aided in the proof-reading. Miss Etheldred Abbot secured books and periodicals bearing on the subject.
