Stunning original artwork of Ty Cobb painted by world renowned sports artist James Fiorentino. Cobb was inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame in 1936. 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 12x18 and is framed to 20x26. Accompanied by a Letter of Authenticity directly from the artist himself.
