Navajo Manta, 1977, a serigraph by R.C. Gorman presenting a seated Navajo woman enveloped in a large traditional pink-patterned manta blanket. The geometric forms are rendered with bold simplification and subtle color modulation in pink, orange, and clay tones against a cool blue background. Her body curves into a resting pose that celebrates the sculptural quality of draped textiles. The spare, elegant composition emphasizes the dignity of the subject and the traditional garment. An essential collector piece representing Gorman’s mastery of the serigraph medium and his deep knowledge of Navajo material culture.
