I am writing to ask for your help in understanding the work of Ted DeGrazia. Several of DeGrazia’s paintings show Navajos wearing a tall, conical hat (www.degrazia.org). I am writing a paper on DeGrazia and am struggling to understand the inspiration for the use of this “witch-like” hat. I was told by the gallery which represents DeGrazia that: “As far as we know, DeGrazia got his inspiration from the traditional tall black hats worn by the older, wiser men of the Navajo tribe in Arizona, so he was painting something he saw on his trips to the Navajo nation”. I can not find any example of this type of hat in the historical record and was wondering if you have ever seen it used by the Navajo. Any help or examples would be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Victor Bianchi
Mr. Carey,
I am following up on an email that I sent to you a few weeks back concerning the use of a conical hat worn by the Navajo and painted in works by Ted Degrazia. Please let me know if you are able to help.
Kind Regards,
Victor Bianchi
