Captured in this magnificent multi-medium painting are the ten original members of what is inarguably the greatest basketball team ever assembled. They took the court, and the gold in Barcelona as their opponents watched, frozen in awe, by talent they had never been so close to. The one-of-a-kind painting, by renowned sports artist L. Salk was used to publish a limited edition Commemorative plate that was produced by Gartlan. So popular was the design, the entire stock of the series sold in less than forty-eight hours. Masterful artwork bears wonderful likeness to each player: Jordan in the front, holding basketball, with Barkley & Stockton on either side. Pippen, Robinson, Malone & Bird in the next row. Mullin, Ewing & Johnson in the back row (at top of portrait). American flag sets the tone. Red white & blue colors are dominant. Elaborately double matted and framed in a highly detailed gold painted wooden frame, NR-MT. Breathtaking.
