Happy Summer Solstice!

☀️ Happy Solstice! Today is the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere and marks the beginning of summer.

In this painting, Georgia O’Keeffe used watercolor pigments to convey the progression of a sunset with a bright star above. “The evening star would be high in the sunset sky when it was still broad daylight.
