Maple and Cedar, Lake George 1922

"Maple and Cedar, Lake George" (1922) is a painting by American artist Georgia O'Keeffe. The piece utilizes a bold, abstract style, characteristic of O'Keeffe's work, to depict a landscape scene. Vibrant colors, including red, yellow, and blue, fill the canvas, creating a sense of dynamism and depth. The dominant figure is a tree, its branches simplified and elongated, contrasting with the sharp, triangular forms of the mountains in the background. This artwork showcases O'Keeffe's ability to capture the essence of nature through abstraction, emphasizing the beauty and power of the natural world.
