Which 1919 Georgia O'Keeffe painting is known for its musical title, Blue and Green Music?

Georgia O'Keeffe's 1919 painting is titled Blue and Green Music.

The work uses sweeping, curved forms and intense blue and green color to suggest the movement and emotional force of music without depicting a recognizable instrument or performer. It belongs to O'Keeffe's early abstract period, when she explored how visual forms could communicate sensations associated with sound.

O'Keeffe was interested in translating musical ideas into painting, and several of her works from this period use titles connected with music. Her abstractions were part of the broader development of American modernism, although she did not follow a single strict movement throughout her career.

The painting is sometimes confused with O'Keeffe's later abstract works that use color names or musical associations. Its distinctive title, Blue and Green Music, and its 1919 date make it a particularly clear example of her early experiments with abstraction.
