Moon River (2004) is a hauntingly beautiful R.C. Gorman composition showing a Navajo woman holding a child, both kneeling beside a turquoise-blue river flowing through a dramatic canyon landscape. Towering purple canyon walls frame the scene while a luminous crescent moon rises in the dark blue night sky, scattered with stars. The woman wears a flowing red blanket that contrasts vividly with the cool palette of the landscape. This spiritual work evokes themes of motherhood, protection, and the sacred relationship between the land and the people. Gorman’s mastery of color and form creates an unforgettable nocturnal vision. Essential for collectors of recent Gorman works and Native American landscape paintings.
