What is the name of Georgia O'Keeffe's New Mexico mesa painting subject?

Cerro Pedernal was a New Mexico mesa repeatedly painted by Georgia O'Keeffe.

Cerro Pedernal is a flat-topped mountain in northern New Mexico, near Abiquiu. O'Keeffe painted it many times from different viewpoints, turning its distinctive profile into one of the recurring landmarks of her work.

She once said that it was her private mountain and that she could see it from her house. The mesa's recognizable shape made it suitable for repeated study, while changing light and weather allowed her to explore variations in color and atmosphere.

Cerro Pedernal also has a personal connection to O'Keeffe's death: her ashes were scattered from its summit in 1986. It should not be confused with Ghost Ranch, the nearby landscape that also appears frequently in her paintings.
