from:Georgia O'Keeffe Museum category:Arts and Entertainment posted:June 3rd, 2009

In 2002, the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum loaned one of its iconic flower paintings to the White House, Jimson Weed, 1932, as one of a number of paintings selected from various museums for the walls of the dining room in the White House’s private quarters.  Jimson Weed was returned recently, and will be on display again for the first time in eight years, along with several sketches that O’Keeffe made of this flower.  Also on display is a glass plate with an image of a Jimson Weed that was commissioned by the Steuben Company in the 1930s as one of a special edition of plates engraved with drawings by famous artists.
