Serigraph

Serigraph measures 16" x 20" in size. Artist proof (AP). Hand-signed in pencil by LeRoy Neiman (D 2012). Please note, piece has a very small tear in the top right corner. Neiman was named the official artist by the Olympic committee for the 1972, 1976 and 1980 winter Olympics. Piece includes a Pristine Auction LOA for authenticity purposes. 

In 1972 millions of television viewers worldwide watched Neiman sketching  in August and September of that year, ABC-TV broadcasts showed him drawing, "from life, on the spot," scenes at the Summer Olympic Games, which took place in Munich, Germany. For most of those Olympics sketches, Neiman used a combination of two or more mediums--watercolor, ink, gouache, felt-tip marker, chalk, colored pencil, graphite, and charcoal.
