Offered here is a truly unique opportunity to acquire this original Wayne Gretzky painting by artist Stephen Holland. This magnificent original art on wood is signed by Holland in the lower left corner of this superb 48" x 72” painting which is also signed by the Great One on the left sleeve of his LA Kings captain's jersey. An image of Gretzky signing the painting is also included. One of the nation's foremost contemporary sport artists, Holland was inspired by images in boxing magazines which became his initial subjects. There he saw the male form in all its power and glory, expressed as contemporary gladiators. Capturing the fury, emotion and drama of sports is what Stephen Holland does best. Being trained in fine art, he brings classical form to this universal subject. His paintings, lithographs and serigraphs are in private and corporate collections around the world, including the Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles and the collections of celebrities and athletes. His traditional education in art, years of experience and his love of sports made Holland an obvious choice for the 1993 Sport Artist of the Year Award. We are proud to offer this scarce and very valuable Stephen Holland original artwork, a massive hand-painted masterpiece of the one and only Wayne Gretzky. Please take note that special shipping arrangements will be required. Comes with a COA.
