Untitled (Abstraction) 1916 - 1917

"Untitled (Abstraction)" is a charcoal drawing on paper created by American artist Georgia O'Keeffe between 1916 and 1917. Known for her large-scale paintings of flowers, landscapes, and urban scenes, O'Keeffe's early works like this one delve into the exploration of abstract forms. This charcoal piece showcases her signature style, using simplified, flowing curves and stark contrasts to create a sense of depth and visual dynamism. The soft, almost hazy, charcoal strokes suggest a sense of movement and atmospheric quality, characteristic of her evolving approach to abstraction.
