“The Beyond”, 1972, Georgia O’Keeffe.

“(…) Towards the end of her life her eyesight deteriorated due to macular degeneration, leaving her with only peripheral vision. This was a devastating blow to the highly visual artist, who was forced to stop oil painting in 1972, although she did continue painting with the help of assistants thereafter. Nonetheless, her last unassisted work in oil, “The Beyond” is a towering work that looks death squarely in the face. O’Keeffe seems to contemplate the magnitude of existence and the impossible notion of what comes next.” (via)
