Red Maple Print, Georgia O’Keeffe Lake George Wall Art Print

A Red Maple print brings O’Keeffe’s Lake George vocabulary into a close, abstract field of color. The central leaf-like form rises from the lower part of the image, with red, gray, white, and shadowed shapes moving around it. It reads as nature, but not as a conventional leaf study.

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. Modernist artists rejected strict realism in favour of new ways of seeing colour, form and space. From the late 1940s O’Keeffe lived in New Mexico, where desert hills, bones and wide skies filled her paintings.

Styling this Georgia O’Keeffe print

Its red palette makes this Georgia O’Keeffe print easy to build a room around. In a living room, “Red Maple” becomes a statement piece at 24×36″, while 11×14″ or 12×18″ fits shelves, desks and gallery walls. Finish “Red Maple” with a simple black or oak frame: its red palette stands out against warm neutrals and charcoal. Build a gallery wall around “Red Maple”: add two or three smaller prints that echo its red and keep the gaps to 2–3 inches.
