Shawana, a 1981 lithograph by R.C. Gorman, captures a seated Navajo woman in a deeply contemplative pose. Rendered in warm earth tones with a dark burgundy-maroon garment contrasting against flesh tones, the figure’s posture conveys quiet introspection. The artist’s skillful handling of light and shadow defines the woman’s form, while her hands and feet are rendered with characteristic Gorman precision. The neutral background allows the figure to command full attention, a hallmark of his gallery works. Essential for collectors of Gorman lithographs, figurative Southwest art, and Native American prints of the 1980s.
