Gladia, a 1990 lithograph by R.C. Gorman, presents a kneeling Navajo woman enveloped in a striking geometric blanket of cobalt blue and burgundy stripes, set against a stylized red rock landscape. The geometric patterns on the blanket echo the angular rock formations behind the figure, creating a visual dialogue between woven textile tradition and the natural environment. The palette combines deep jewel tones with warm earth oranges and earth browns, establishing both visual richness and cultural authenticity. The figure’s stately posture conveys strength and dignity. This powerful work merges figuration with landscape, textile design with geological form, and speaks to the deep connection between Navajo women and the Southwestern terrain. Essential for serious collectors of Gorman lithographs and contemporary Southwestern fine art.
