Georgia O'Keeffe 1927 - 1928

This striking portrait of Georgia O’Keeffe, taken by her husband Alfred Stieglitz in 1927-1928, exemplifies the stark beauty and emotional intensity of their artistic partnership. O’Keeffe, known for her abstract depictions of natural forms, is captured in a contemplative mood, her gaze directed off-camera. The photograph's muted tones and close cropping, characteristic of Stieglitz's "Pictorialism" style, accentuate her features and create a sense of intimacy. This work is a testament to the power of photography to capture both the physical and the psychological essence of its subject.
