What was the title of Georgia O'Keeffe’s 1932 painting that became a major American auction record?

Georgia O'Keeffe’s 1932 painting was titled Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1.

The painting depicts a large white jimson weed flower against a dark background. O'Keeffe enlarged flowers so that viewers had to confront their forms and details, although she rejected the idea that her flower paintings should be reduced to symbolic explanations.

In 2014, the painting sold at Sotheby’s for $44.4 million, including fees. That sale made it the most expensive painting by a female artist at auction at the time. Its record was later surpassed by works by other women artists, so the historical claim belongs specifically to the 2014 auction period.

The title is sometimes shortened in casual discussion, but the catalogued title includes both the plant name and the number. It is held in a private collection rather than by the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum.
