Angela’s Baby

Angela’s Baby is a 1991 R.C. Gorman serigraph depicting a deeply tender mother-and-child scene. A Navajo mother bends forward, her body enveloped in a vast, softly flowing earth-toned shawl that almost becomes a landscape in itself, while her infant is gently cradled at her chest. Gorman’s loose, confident sienna and terra-cotta line work is printed on a warm peach ground so the drawing breathes like an original pastel. Issued in an edition of 200 (approx. 24.5 x 18 in.), Angela’s Baby is a classic motherhood piece in the Gorman catalog and a deeply collectible choice for buyers of Native American mother-and-child art, Navajo serigraphs, and tender Southwest figurative work.
