The Earring, 1975, lithograph by R.C. Gorman, is an extraordinarily refined work showing a Navajo woman in profile with her head gently turned and body positioned in a contemplative kneeling pose. The composition relies almost entirely on subtle line work and minimal color—cream and tan tones create a restrained, sophisticated palette that emphasizes form and emotion over visual spectacle. A single turquoise earring catches the light at her ear, a jewel-like accent that focuses the viewer’s complete attention. The economy of means and profound emotional depth make this an iconic Gorman piece beloved by collectors seeking his most refined and elegant works.
