Which New York skyscraper did Georgia O'Keeffe repeatedly paint while living in Manhattan?

Georgia O'Keeffe repeatedly painted the Shelton Hotel while living in Manhattan.

The Shelton Hotel, now known as the New York by Gehry, was a prominent skyscraper near Lexington Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. O'Keeffe lived there with Alfred Stieglitz from 1925 to 1936, and its architecture became an important subject in her paintings and photographs.

Her views of the building and the city transformed a modern commercial structure into a study of vertical lines, geometric forms, and changing light. These works helped establish her as a significant painter of New York's modern urban environment.

The building is sometimes confused with the Empire State Building or the Chrysler Building, both iconic New York skyscrapers that appear in many city histories. O'Keeffe's repeated association in this context is specifically with the Shelton Hotel, whose upper-floor residence gave her a close view of Manhattan.
