Outstanding and unique 1992 Larry Bird Leroy Neiman original artwork gifted to the Boston Celtics and Red Sox staff photographer Steve Lipofsky. Using a Larry Bird NBA Finals photograph that Liposky took as inspiration, Neiman created this 13.5x22" original (framed to 22x30.5" overall) in Celtics green. Known for his bright colors and impressionist style, Neiman pieces are highly sought after (especially originals) and widely considered the gold standard for sports art work. Neiman inscribed "To Steve Lipofsky after your photo of Larry Bird" in black ink and signed and dated in pencil.  Comes with printed digital image used as inspiration (framed to 17x19") and OrignalArtBroker.com COA.
