Forget about brooding Rembrandts and trippy Picassos as we celebrate, ta da… Sports Art! Extraordinary sports artist Stephen Holland has captured a fine bunch of athletes and entertainers throughout his career in a fine style we can all appreciate. Among the living legends he has immortalized is the NBA’s most proficient scoring machine, Michael Jordan. The master of the slam dunk looms large in this riveting lithograph, appropriately known as “The Dunk”.
Mounted on a heavy stock 26x45 black backer, this 20x39 litho is LE numbered “134/197” by artist Holland, who has also signed at bottom right in silver with determined (“10”) potency. Well-conceived in a bit less than fifty shades of gray, this glorious rendering reports in excellent condition, with negligible traces of wear, other than on the perimeter of the rough cut backer only, which presumably will be framed over. Jordan has put the finishing touch on this impressive piece, by applying a powerful (“10”) strength autograph in field just above Holland’s signature. With artwork, autographs and backer all coming together in complementary fashion, this attractive piece radiates classic display appeal. Comes with UDA holo-sticker only.
