Description

The Prefontaine Committee commissioned nationally recognized artist Chris Hopkins to do the original painting of Steve Prefontaine.


The painting is now displayed at the Coos Art Museum in Steve's hometown, Coos Bay, Oregon, which is also home to the Prefontaine Gallery.


This Limited Edition full-color print measures edge to edge including the borders, 17 1/2 x 25-inches. Picture does not do the original or the print justice.


Painting Reproduction is signed by the artist, Chris Hopkins and by Pre's parents.


During his brief 24-year life-span, Steve Prefontaine grew from hometown hero, to record-setting college phenomenon, to internationally acclaimed track star. In a similar span of years since his death in 1975, Pre has become the stuff of enduring legend.
