Red Cannas Print, Georgia O’Keeffe Floral Wall Art Print

Red Cannas print is all surface, color, and petal movement. The canna blooms press forward until the flower nearly becomes an abstract field of red, with only small pieces of white background showing through. It is a floral image, but it behaves more like color architecture than a garden illustration.

About Georgia O’Keeffe

Georgia O’Keeffe (1887–1986) is often called the mother of American modernism. Her smooth colour gradients and simple forms suit calm, uncluttered interiors. Botanical prints bring a fresh, natural touch to kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms. Movements such as Fauvism, Cubism and Expressionism all grew out of early 20th-century modernism.
