Description

George Carlson Tarahumara Women with Children Limited Edition Print, 1982

Limited edition figurative print by George Carlson (American, b. 1940), dated 1982, depicting Tarahumara women with their children in a rural landscape. The figures are shown wearing traditional garments, with one woman carrying a child while another stands nearby, emphasizing themes of family, daily life, and cultural continuity.

Rendered with textured mark-making and layered color, the composition features deep reds, earth tones, and muted greens that give the scene weight and movement. Carlson’s approach combines expressive handling with careful observation, reflecting his sustained engagement with Indigenous subjects and the human figure.

This example is pencil signed in the lower left and numbered 74 of 300, with the artist’s signature and date also visible within the image. The work is double matted, housed in a beveled wood frame, and presented behind glass, ready for display.

A strong late 20th-century limited edition by a listed American artist, appealing to collectors of modern figurative and culturally focused works.
