Esperanza St II

Esperanza, State II, 1995 Lithograph by R.C. Gorman. This striking variant of the Esperanza composition retains the seated woman with pink skirt and elegant pose, but reimagines her blanket in a deep navy blue accented with warm red and cream geometric patterns echoing Navajo textile traditions. The Acoma pottery remains as an essential symbol of cultural heritage, though rendered with slightly different tonal values. Pink and coral flowers (rather than blue) bloom in the high desert setting, and the sunset sky glows with orange and peachy tones. This State II offers collectors a warmer alternative to State I while maintaining the composition’s essence. Perfect for those collecting Gorman’s series variations.
