GEORGINA O'KEEFFE JOHN LOENGARD/ PAINTINGS AND PHOTOGRAPHS

In June 1966, photographer John Loengard was asked by Life magazine to photograph Georgia OKeeffe in New Mexico, where she had been living since the late 1930s. Georgia OKeeffe was 79 years old at the time, Loengard was 32, and for three days he observed and pho tographed the private life of this pioneer artist who virtually redefined American painting.
