Taos Shadows, 1983, Lithograph by R.C. Gorman. A Navajo woman appears in profile, viewed from behind and wrapped in a striking Bayeta blanket displaying bold striped patterning in vibrant red, navy blue, and cream. Her long dark hair frames her back as she wears traditional dress beneath the blanket. The composition renders the blanket with careful attention to its woven texture and bold linear patterns, celebrating one of the most iconic textiles of Navajo culture. The background gradient shifts through warm peachy, mauve, and gray tones, creating soft atmospheric depth. The figure’s quiet, contemplative demeanor and the intimate viewpoint suggest introspection and dignified reserve. A distinguished work for collectors of Gorman’s celebration of traditional textiles and Native American cultural heritage.
