Georgia O'Keeffe bought a historic adobe house in Abiquiu in 1945.
The house was part of a former hacienda in the village of Abiquiu, north of Santa Fe. O'Keeffe had noticed its adobe wall and distinctive black door during earlier visits, and the image became one of her best-known recurring subjects. She eventually acquired the property and had it restored as a home and studio.
O'Keeffe divided her time between Abiquiu and Ghost Ranch. The two places are close in the broader New Mexico landscape but are not the same location. Her Abiquiu house is now preserved as a historic site by the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum, allowing visitors to see the architecture, courtyard, studio, and surrounding views that shaped her later work.
