Stunning original artwork of 500 Home Run Club member Albert Pujols painted by world renowned sports artist James Fiorentino. The original treasure has been signed by Pujols in very large, and bold, black marker. Fiorentino is considered one of the most unique artists of the twentieth century. His skill embodies a compelling sense of realism. At the age of fifteen, James was the youngest artist to be featured in the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum for his likeness of Reggie Jackson, which hung beside the paintings of Norman Rockwell and Andy Warhol. His painting commemorating Roberto Clemente remains in the museum as a part of their permanent collection. Pujols has 591 career HR's and counting. Beautifully matted, framed, and ready for display. Accompanied by an ALOA from JSA as well as a Letter of Authenticity directly from the artist himself.
