Georgia O'Keeffe painted the recently constructed Radiator Building at night with its dazzling lights piercing through New York's dark fog. Notice Alfred Stieglitz's name in hazy red neon. This could liken Stieglitz's stature to the skyscraper itself: a larger-than-life monument of innovation and a portrait. Or perhaps O'Keeffe was poking fun at her husband's known boasting that his art galleries were under-advertised.

Georgia O’Keeffe pintó el recién construido Radiator Building por la noche, con sus deslumbrantes luces atravesando la oscura niebla de Nueva York. Observe el nombre de Alfred Stieglitz en un rojo neón borroso. Esto podría comparar el prestigio de Stieglitz con el rascacielos: un gran monumento a la innovación y un retrato; o tal vez, O’Keeffe se burlaba de la conocida presunción de su marido de que sus galerías de arte tenían poca publicidad.
