The painting depicts a close-up view of a single black iris, with its intricate petals and stamen prominently displayed. The dark background contrasts with the bright white of the flower, creating a striking and dramatic effect. O'Keeffe's use of color and form creates a sense of abstraction, while the realism of the flower maintains a strong sense of naturalism.
