Painter Georgia O’Keeffe and photographer Alfred Stieglitz are among art history’s foremost couples. And they left an amazingly detailed record of their relationship in the form of more than 5,000 letters. Sarah Greenough of the National Gallery of Art has edited a new volume of these letters. She joins us to discuss the couple’s relationship and their work.
