It’s a fitting location for the shot too, seeing as O’Keeffe made the landscapes of New Mexico a frequent subject of her paintings. O’Keeffe’s work can be found in galleries across the world to this day. You should certainly look for a chance to see one.

Here we have a photo by W.Eugene Smith of Chaplin at 63 years old as he practices expressions in the mirror. This is certainly a rare intimate shot of a man that was so well documented. A very remarkable photo for sure.
