Canvas. Title Jimson Weed Medium Oil on Canvas Dimensions 31 1/2 × 24 inches (80 × 60 cm) Date 1930 Condition Good overall condition. The painting displays rich coloration and finely modeled floral forms with light surface wear consistent with age. Framed and ready for display. Please review all photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description. Provenance The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, Ohio (museum label affixed verso); thereafter Private Collection. Description A striking floral composition depicting a monumental white jimson weed blossom emerging against a rich field of deep green foliage. Executed in oil on canvas, the composition emphasizes the sculptural elegance of the flower through softly modeled petals, luminous color transitions, and a carefully balanced arrangement that transforms a single botanical subject into an iconic modernist image. The dramatic close-up perspective and refined treatment of light create a powerful sense of scale and abstraction. Attributed to Georgia O'Keeffe (1887–1986), this painting reflects many of the stylistic characteristics associated with the artist's celebrated floral works, including enlarged botanical forms, subtle tonal gradations, sculptural modeling, vibrant natural color harmonies, and a modernist approach that elevates ordinary subjects into monumental compositions.Condition Report:This artwork is offered as attributed to the artist referenced in the title.
