De Soto Was Here
Acrylic on Panel 12”x16
SOLD
It has been documented that Hernando
de Soto and some of his
men spent the night on Useppa during
the time they were charting the
southwest coast of Florida. Seerey-
Lester has painted a discarded helmet,
perhaps left behind in their rush
to leave. Note the reflection of the
ever-present great egret in the helmet
and another passing by.
