The artwork titled “Jack-in-the-Pulpit III,” created by Georgia O’Keeffe in 1930, belongs to the Precisionism art movement. It is part of the “Jack in the Pulpit” series and falls under the genre of flower painting.
In “Jack-in-the-Pulpit III,” a flower is depicted with meticulous detail and vibrant coloration. The focal point of the artwork is the central flower, which is enveloped by bold green leaves while the petals exhibit a deep burgundy hue with striking white veins. The background consists of light blue skies with areas of white, highlighting the flower’s organic form. This painting exemplifies O’Keeffe’s ability to magnify natural objects, invoking an almost abstract quality while retaining the inherent beauty and complexity of the floral subject matter.
