Original Typed Letter Signed by Artist Georgia Oâ€™Keeffe

197222337EAlbuquerque NM March 29 1972. Original Typed Letter Signed by the famed contemporary artist Georgia Oâ€™Keeffe to the Los Angeles opthalmologist and surgeon Glenn O. Dayton referencing her failing eyesight. Single sheet 8 1/2â€ x 11â€. The letter reads in full: â€œAbiquiu New Mexico March 29 1972 - Dear Mr. Dayton: When I was in your office someone asked me if anyone in my family had any eye trouble like mine and I said no. Later I remembered I had a grandfather in Budapest who went blind. Thatâ€™s all I know about it - it might be an item of vague interest. My left eye has become much more cloudy and itâ€™s as if my right eye is beginning to be cloudy. I assume that I should know there is nothing that could be done about if - am I correct I have gone to the doctor here again just last week and he tells me that my eye is no worse so I assume that nothing has happened to it. I would go to see you again but from what I understand there would be no real reason for me to go. Sincerely Georgia Oâ€™Keeffeâ€. Very minor creases from folding and with â€œFileâ€ written in an unknown hand next to Dr. Daytonâ€™s name and address else fine. Georgia Oâ€™Keeffe 1887 - 1986 was an American artist best known for her paintings of flowers New York skyscrapers and New Mexico landscapes. She continued to paint into the 1970s when her almost complete loss of eyesight due to macular degeneration which began in 1968 significantly curtailed her ability to work. On March 6 1986 O'Keeffe died in St. Vincent's Hospital in Santa Fe having almost reached her goal of living to 100; she was 98 years old. The Georgia O'Keeffe Museum opened in Santa Fe in 1997. The assets included a large body of her work photographs archival materials and her Abiquiu house library and property. The Georgia O'Keeffe Home and Studio in Abiquiu was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1998 and is now owned by the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum. unknown books
