The brief

Ali is synonymous for being depicted in a caricature-esque light in the arts, however, after seeing an intimate series of photos taken of Ali in one of his most private moments, George felt encouraged to portray the cultural hero in a more reflective and considered pose.

A one of one print of the Portrait was then acquired by the Muhammad Ali Center in Louiseville, USA; and was exhibited alongside a select number of renowned artists.
