What was Andrew Wyeth's most famous painting called?
Andrew Wyeth's most famous painting is arguably Christina's World. It depicts Christina Olson, a woman who was unable to walk due to a degenerative muscular disorder. In the egg-tempera-on-panel painting, Olson reclines in a grassy field, looking toward her farmhouse. Wyeth painted the piece in 1948, and today it is part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, New York. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of Andrew Wyeth art.
