Analysis Summary:

The article snippet appears generally accurate in its basic claims about the Georgia O'Keeffe exhibition at the New York Botanical Garden focusing on her Hawaiian works. However, without external verification sources, a definitive accuracy score is difficult to assign. The snippet seems relatively unbiased, presenting the information in a straightforward manner.

Detailed Analysis:
  • Claim:** "You know a Georgia O'Keeffe painting when you see one -- oversized flowers and stark images of the New Mexico landscape."
  • Analysis: This is a generally accepted characterization of O'Keeffe's most famous works. This is based on internal knowledge.

  • Claim:** "Georgia O'Keeffe: Visions of Hawaii' includes 20 works, and a curated flower show."
