Abstract Figurative Print - 'Monument of Time' by R.C. Gorman

This item is an abstract figurative print, likely a lithograph or serigraph, housed within a wooden frame and matted. The print itself appears to depict a complex composition of intertwined motifs. The dominant color palette consists of muted blues, purples, violets, and reddish-browns, suggesting an earthy yet somewhat enigmatic aesthetic. Visible elements within the composition include what appear to be facial profiles, possibly stylized, evoking human forms. A prominent feature is a circular dark shape, possibly symbolizing a sun or moon eclipse, centrally placed within a larger abstract form. Below this, there are horizontal elements that strongly resemble the monumental stones of Stonehenge or a similar ancient megastructure, rendered in soft blues and grays, adding a sense of historical or timeless significance. The overall construction implies a layered technique, with various elements overlaying one another, creating depth and a dreamlike quality. The print is signed and numbered in the bottom left corner, with the visible text including 'Monument of Time' and a numerical indication such as '75/100', suggesting a limited edition. The artist's signature 'R.C. Gorman' is also visible, indicating the renowned Native American artist. The frame is a light-colored, possibly oak or pine, wood with a simple, clean profile, complementing the artwork without overpowering it. A white or off-white mat board with an inner golden line separates the print from the frame, providing a visual break and protecting the artwork. The condition appears good, with no obvious signs of damage, fading, or wear to the print itself or the frame, although direct inspection for minute details or glass condition is limited by the image resolution. The style is distinctly modern and abstract, with strong influences of Indigenous art, characteristic of R.C. Gorman's work from the late 20th century.
