Ghost Ranch was the New Mexico ranch where Georgia O'Keeffe maintained a home near Abiquiú.
Ghost Ranch is a retreat and education center in northern New Mexico, known for its dramatic red cliffs and broad high-desert landscapes. O'Keeffe began visiting the area in the 1930s and later maintained a house there, using the surrounding terrain as a recurring subject.
She painted formations such as the Pedernal and the cliffs around the ranch from repeated viewpoints. Her works often isolate a ridge, wall, or distant peak so that the landscape becomes a simplified arrangement of color and shape.
Ghost Ranch is distinct from O'Keeffe's house in the village of Abiquiú. She also painted the nearby Cerro Pedernal, a mesa that became one of her signature subjects. The ranch's cinematic landscape later appeared in films and remains a major cultural destination.
