Georgia O'Keeffe's Ghost Ranch landscape is near Abiquiú, New Mexico. Ghost Ranch is a dramatic area of cliffs, mesas, and desert terrain that became one of the artist's most important sources of imagery.
O'Keeffe began visiting New Mexico in 1929 and repeatedly painted its landscapes and geological formations. She later acquired a house in the nearby village of Abiquiú, while Ghost Ranch remained a separate but closely associated place in her work.
The names are sometimes mixed up because both locations are central to O'Keeffe's New Mexico story. Abiquiú is the settlement; Ghost Ranch is the large landscape and historic ranch area north of it.
