Early history and creation


Charles Demuth painted this work around 1913, perhaps while he developed his craft in Paris traveled across France.[2][3] He likely held onto this painting until he gave it to his friend Georgia O'Keeffe in 1931.[4]


Description and interpretation


The work depicts two small houses in the foreground with a mountain range in the background. On the reverse side, there is a watercolor draft of a bridge over the Seine in Paris.[1]
