Georgia O’Keeffe at home in New Mexico with her beloved Alexander Calder mobile, gifted to her by the artist in 1942.

Georgia O’Keeffe photographed at her home in Abiquiu, New Mexico, USA (c.1970s).

In 1945, O’Keeffe purchased a home in Abiquiú, a small village with a more sustainable water supply, allowing her to cultivate a garden. This home became her primary residence for the rest of her life. The mud-brick adobe walls and wooden elements of the house created a harmonious blend of natural and architectural beauty, inspiring many of her paintings.

The hanging metal mobile was a gift from O’Keeffe´s friend, Alexander Calder (c.1940s)
