Cholena State I, a 1980 R.C. Gorman lithograph, offers an intimate bust-length portrait of a Navajo woman seen in three-quarter profile against a muted butter-yellow ground. She wears a warm sienna-brown blouse that catches subtle pink and rose highlights, her hair pulled into a low chignon that reveals the soft rose-tinted cheek and downcast lashes. Gorman’s tender colored-pencil hatching gives the portrait a delicate drawing-study intimacy. Signed and dated 1980 in the margin, this is a highly collectible small-format Gorman print framed within the cream paper. Chola St I is a must-have for collectors of Gorman lithograph portraits, Navajo figure studies, and intimate-scale Southwest fine art prints.
