What was the name of Georgia O'Keeffe's Abiquiú home, acquired in 1945?

The story behind the answer

Georgia O'Keeffe's Abiquiú home, acquired in 1945, is known as the Abiquiú house.

O'Keeffe purchased the abandoned hacienda in Abiquiú, New Mexico, in 1945 after visiting it for years. She spent substantial effort restoring the property and transformed it into a home and studio. The building's courtyard, walls, doors, and surrounding landscape became recurring subjects in her work.

The house is separate from her property at Ghost Ranch, although both locations are in northern New Mexico and are closely connected with her career. O'Keeffe used the Abiquiú house as her primary residence and studio from the late 1940s until 1984.

The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum manages the property and offers limited tours. Its preserved spaces help explain how architecture, landscape, and daily working routines intersected in O'Keeffe's later art.
