Donning an ornate feathered headdress, wearing a thick beaded necklace of coils, and cloaked in a red striped blanket over a purple embroidered shirt, the Native American warrior k nown as Hook Nose (Roman Nose) is shown in great glory and prestige by Gregory Perillo. With his skin wrinked and his heavy headdress pulled over his brow, the figure's stoic demeanor and long-lived wisdom and leadership is evident. Shown here in his traditional war-bonnet, Hook Nose and his followers believed the garment offered protection to himself and his people as long as certain rituals were followed. Show more
