Marco Island historian Betsy Perdichizzi departed from her usual presentations about Marco’s rich history to introduce members of the Marco Island DAR to a famous Indian artist in Oklahoma.
At the Jan. 21 Zoom meeting, she presented pen and ink drawings of animal, spiritual and tribal prints by the late Kiowa artist, Robert “Hantso” Cannon.
Perdichizzi was a friend and classmate of Hantso’s wife, Yvonne Cannon in Duncan, OK. Before Yvonne died in 2020, she left Perdichizzi a legacy of her husband’s signed and dated prints.
“She gave me the prints in 2018 because of her bad health. I haven t known what to do with them until I discovered the DAR connection with Bacone College,” Perdichizzi explained.
