Daughter of the Moon

Daughter of the Moon, a 1990 R.C. Gorman lithograph, is a breathtaking fantasy composition in which a Navajo woman floats in the twilight sky above Monument Valley cradling a silver crescent moon in her palm. She wears a coral red blouse cinched with a plum sash and a translucent lavender to cobalt skirt that dissolves into the starry heavens as it streams behind her. Below her, the iconic Mittens buttes glow terracotta orange against a graduated sky shifting from deep navy at the zenith down through teal and pale peach at the horizon. Her dark hair is gathered into a neat chongo bun. Signed and numbered by Gorman, this mythic lithograph is a true gallery showpiece for collectors of Gorman Monument Valley work and Native American fine art prints.
