I am pretty good at this game.  I can recognize styles fairly easily, and know how to use the search engines.  Once I narrowed it down to Cezanne, and started looking, DIA seemed like a logical place to check the collections.

Status: offline 		What I do when solving is try to identify the style/movement, then peruse a list of artists from that period/movement.  When I see like candidates, I look at a couple of pieces to see if the brushwork fits etc, and try to narrow it down.  Unless of course, I can take a good guess directly at the artist.  The search engine I sue the most in artcyclopedia.

Status: offline 		LOL.  Well, yes, it is indeed O'Keefe, and not her typical botanicals (which, reminds me, maybe we should have a discussion about erotic or not, buit anyway....)

Hint 1: Urban
Hint 2: O'Keefe is a NATIONAL icon

I knew only that it looked like something from the 30s and that I had seen it somewhere...
Once I knew it was O'Keeffe, it had to be New York City, but even then it wasn't easy to find.

Status: offline 		OK, ready? Let me know if it's too small.
Hint: like the O'Keeffe piece, it is not typical of what this artist is known for.
Enjoy!
