Red Peppers (1984) by R.C. Gorman presents a powerful seated composition: a Navajo woman in warm golden-tan flesh tones and flowing red garment kneeling beside an overflowing woven basket of bright red chile peppers against a luminous blue sky and distant high desert landscape. The warm red of both fabric and produce echoes throughout the composition, while the geometric basketry provides structural stability. Gorman’s masterful color interplay between the cool cerulean sky, warm earth, and vibrant produce creates visual harmony. The piece celebrates both the agricultural heritage of the Southwest and the figure’s relationship to the land and its bounty. A magnificent fine art lithograph demonstrating Gorman’s skill at merging still life, landscape, and figurative elements. Essential for collectors of Gorman works, Southwest fine art, and Native American cultural imagery.
