Which flower appears in Georgia O'Keeffe's 1936 painting titled Jimson Weed?

Georgia O'Keeffe's 1936 painting Jimson Weed depicts a jimson weed flower.

Jimson weed, also called Datura stramonium, is a flowering plant with a large, trumpet-shaped blossom. O'Keeffe repeatedly transformed ordinary natural forms into monumental compositions, and the plant's white flower provided a dramatic subject for her close-up approach.

The 1936 painting Jimson Weed is different from Jimson Weed/White Flower No. 1, which O'Keeffe painted in 1932 and which later became famous for its auction price. Both titles refer to the same plant, but they are separate works made four years apart.

O'Keeffe rejected the idea that her flower paintings should be read only as symbolic images. She emphasized that viewers often overlooked flowers in everyday life, so she enlarged them to make their structure and beauty impossible to miss.
