Southwestern Native American Themed Lithograph Signed Penni Anne Cross Appraisal

Southwestern Native American Themed Lithograph signed Penni Anne Cross

This item is a framed fine art print or lithograph depicting a group of Native American figures on horseback traversing a desert landscape under a hazy sky. The composition features a caravan of figures draped in traditional blankets or robes, rendered in a soft, atmospheric style indicative of late 20th-century Southwestern illustrative art. The color palette is dominated by muted earth tones, grays, and soft blues, with a subtle red sun visible through the low-hanging clouds on the right side of the frame. A signature is clearly visible in the lower-left corner, likely that of Penni Anne Cross (note: the visible signature 'Al Cross' or 'Cross' is consistent with her stylized mark). The piece is professionally matted with an off-white border and house in a light-toned oak or natural wood frame. In terms of condition, the artwork appears well-preserved under glass, though the frame shows minor signs of age and the matting exhibits slight discoloration at the edges. The print quality is high, showing delicate transitions in the cloud work and dusty ground, suggesting a quality reproduction of an original pastel or oil painting. Based on the style and framing, this piece likely dates from the 1980s or 1990s, a period of high popularity for stylized Indigenous-themed décor.
