    #OTD in 2014, Georgia O'Keeffe's 1932 painting, Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1, sold for $44.4 million. The record for the highest price paid for a painting by a woman. #art #AmericanModerism

    However, the O'Keeffe painting's record may fall...this very night (1/2).

    Split image. Left: A black-and-white portrait of artist Georgia O'Keeffe and right: a colorful painting of a large white flower. The black-and-white photograph shows O'Keeffe from the chest up, gazing off to the side with her dark hair pulled back. She is wearing a dark top. The painting on the right is titled Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1 (1932), one of O'Keeffe's most famous works. It is an oil on canvas painting that fills the frame with a magnified view of a white jimson weed blossom set against lush green leaves and a blue background. The flower is highly detailed with ruffled edges, emphasizing its natural beauty and form.
