The uncanny hockey sense that Wayne Gretzky brought to the game shines through the Great One’s blue eyes in this remarkable likeness painted by renowned sports artist Tim Cortes. The incredible details in this original photo-realism Gretzky portrait make it easy at first glance to mistake the image as an action shot of No. 99 from late in his career with the New York Rangers. In fact, Cortes’ detailed approach to this portrait of the one and only Great One will have you doing double and triple takes as you explore his faithful depiction of Gretzky’s appearance, as well as the artist’s remarkable interpretation of the superstar’s passion for the game. This 16" x 14" original artwork is presented in a classy white and blue double matte and mounted in a stylish 25 ¼" x 23 ¼" blue wood frame. A unique opportunity to add a magical piece to any worthy Gretzky shrine.
