Stunning original artwork of legendary basketball player, Hall of Famer and NBA Champion Bill Walton painted by world renowned sports artist James Fiorentino. 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. This original treasure measures 15x21 and is framed to size 22x29 inches. The frame itself has a few imperfections though the original art itself remains in mint condition. Walton signed this one-of-a-kind treasure in person for James Fiorentino himself.
