Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986), the American artist known for her paintings of enlarged flowers, New York skyscrapers, and New Mexico landscapes, was one of the most significant artists of the 20th century.

During her lifetime, which spanned almost a century, she became widely recognized for her huge contribution to modern art. Drawing mainly from O'Keeffe's letters that are depicted in this biography, artist Maria Herreros delves into O'Keeffe's deepest self: a tireless traveller, a nature lover, a strong and emancipated woman who carved her own determined path through life and did it her way.
