Did a tarantula destroy an O’Keefe?

_x000D_A water-damaged painting, likely caused by a tarantula tunneling through the roof at the artist’s 18th-century  home in Abiquiú, New Mexico, is displayed at the Santa Fe Georgia O’Keeffe Museum after conservators spent 1,250 hours and $145,000 restoring it. The piece, titled “Spring,” will be displayed at the museum through Oct. 10, 2022, before traveling to the San Diego Museum of Art in 2023.
