Description

O'Keeffe's two houses in New Mexico-- at Abiquiu and Ghost Ranch-- are essential elements in her paintings, but their history has never before been detailed. Quoting liberally from the artist's letters, Lynes and Lopez create a vibrant picture of O'Keeffe and her homes, which have long intrigued the public.
