Stunning original artwork of baseball Hall of Fame member Hank Aaron of the Milwaukee Braves painted by world renowned sports artist James Fiorentino and signed by Hank Aaron. 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. Accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity directly from the artist himself. This original treasure measures 20x20 and is framed to size 28 x 28 inches. Hank Aaron has signed this original beautifully in bold, black marker. Aaron signed this one-of-a-kind treasure during a private signing during Spring 2019 in New Jersey. Hammerin' Hank is a member of baseball's ultra elite 700 Home Run Club (along with Babe Ruth and Barry Bonds) as well as the 3,000 Hit Club.
