Detailed explanation-1: -Red Poppy, 1927. As another of her series, Georgia O’Keeffe has produced the total of seven paintings of poppies. The most famous ones are The Red Poppy from 1927 and Oriental Poppies from 1928.
Detailed explanation-2: -By the mid-1920s, O’Keeffe was recognized as one of America’s most important and successful artists, known for her paintings of New York skyscrapers-an essentially American symbol of modernity-as well as her equally radical depictions of flowers.
Detailed explanation-3: -In O’Keeffe’s Red Cannapainting series, she focuses on close up images of the interior view of flowers. Many speculated that these images referenced female genitals and sexuality, an idea that seemed to be fuelled by controversial images that O’Keeffe’s husband had taken of her and displayed publicly.
