Description

Amado Peña Limited Edition Ceramic Tile #48/100

Vibrant limited edition ceramic tile artwork by renowned Southwestern artist Amado Maurilio Peña Jr. (American, b. 1943), numbered 48/100 and signed “amado” in glaze. Peña, a member of the Pascua Yaqui Tribe of Arizona, is celebrated for his bold geometric depictions of Native and Hispanic subjects that honor the heritage of the American Southwest. This piece portrays a cloaked figure holding a white lamb, rendered in Peña’s distinctive earth-toned palette with rhythmic linework and cultural symbolism. The tile’s rich enamel surface and stylized design reflect Peña’s mastery of modernist abstraction blended with indigenous influence.

Professionally framed in a gold-tone metal frame, this edition represents a rarer example of Peña’s work in ceramic format—distinct from his more common serigraphs and prints—making it a desirable acquisition for collectors of Southwestern and Native American art.

Condition:
Good overall condition. The artwork surface is clean with vibrant color and gloss. The gold-tone frame shows visible surface scratches consistent with handling and display.

Dimensions:
Overall: 10½" x 10½"
Visible artwork: 9½" x 9½"
