Which New York City skyscraper did Georgia O'Keeffe repeatedly paint from 1925 to 1930?

Georgia O'Keeffe repeatedly painted the Shelton Hotel from 1925 to 1930.

The Shelton Hotel, now known as the New Yorker Hotel, was a prominent Manhattan skyscraper where O'Keeffe and Alfred Stieglitz lived for a period. From the building and nearby viewpoints, she made paintings and drawings of New York's vertical architecture, streets, and nighttime illumination.

These city images formed an important part of O'Keeffe's work during the 1920s. She translated the modern metropolis into simplified planes, sharp contours, and dramatic contrasts rather than treating it as ordinary architectural documentation.

The building is sometimes confused with other famous New York towers that O'Keeffe painted or photographed. Her urban subjects included several structures and views, but the Shelton was especially significant because it was also connected to her living experience in Manhattan.
