Angelina is a 1977 R.C. Gorman bronze sculpture that translates his beloved female portraits into three dimensions. The head-and-shoulders bust captures a Navajo woman in profile, her features serene with lowered eyes, a drop earring at her ear, and long hair sweeping into a sculpted ponytail that curves behind her neck. Cast in richly patinated bronze with deep sienna and umber tones, the piece is mounted on a simple warm-wood base that grounds the composition. From an extremely limited edition of only 10, this bronze is an exceptional three-dimensional R.C. Gorman collectible and a cornerstone piece for collectors of Gorman sculpture, Navajo fine-art bronzes, and Southwest sculptural work.
