Enchanted Mesa

Enchanted Mesa, 1989 Lithograph by R.C. Gorman. Two seated Navajo women sit together in companionable silence against a towering adobe cliff formation rendered in soft buff and taupe tones. The figure on the left wears a burgundy jacket and pale grey pants; her companion on the right is draped in brilliant cobalt blue and a flowing pink skirt that catches the warm sunset light. Behind them, the high desert landscape is framed by a luminous gradient sky transitioning from pale cream to golden orange and soft blue, suggesting the magic hour when day surrenders to evening. Gorman captures a tender moment of connection and quiet contemplation. A masterwork for collectors of Gorman lithographs, Southwest landscape art, and intimate figurative studies.
