Ei-bah (1981) by R.C. Gorman, an ink drawing of remarkable delicacy depicting a Navajo woman in a burgundy dress with ruffled, organic fabric shapes that seem to float around her seated form. Her face is calm and introspective, and soft white drapery trails below her in graceful curves suggesting movement and weightlessness. The warm burgundy against the neutral background creates subtle depth, and Gorman’s master draughtsmanship is evident in every precisely rendered line and subtle shadow. The composition conveys both vulnerability and strength, a hallmark of Gorman’s female figures. An excellent choice for collectors of ink drawings, works on paper, and Native American figurative art on paper.
