Woman from Taos

Woman from Taos, 1983 lithograph by R.C. Gorman. An evocative portrait of a Navajo woman in a reclining position, her long dark hair cascading freely. She wears a burgundy jacket and lavender-grey skirt, her form relaxed and contemplative. A blue hair ornament adds a subtle accent. The soft, muted palette of greys, lavenders, and burgundy creates a hushed, intimate atmosphere. The ground shadows and careful modeling of form demonstrate Gorman’s mastery of the lithographic medium. The woman’s serene expression and restful pose convey both vulnerability and strength. A tender work perfect for collectors seeking psychologically nuanced portraits.
