Dempsey and Firpo Poster
This is a reproduction of George Wesley Bellows’ 1925 classic painting of one of the most dramatic moments of the sport of Boxing. The fight took place before 80,000 fans at the Polo Grounds of New York City on September 14, 1923. The moment captured in the fight occurred towards the end of the first round. By later standards, Firpo would have won the fight with a knockout but Dempsey was helped into the ring and was standing by the time the referee counted nine. Dempsey recovered and knocked Firpo out in the fifty-seven mark of Round Two. Bellows was born in Ohio and moved to New York City at the age of 25. He became associated with the Ashcan School which advocated the painting of contemporary urban life. He won fame in that genre which he retained for the rest of life which ended in 1925. This is an early work which wonderfully displays Bellow's commitment to contemporary American life and recreation.

I like the design features on the website. They enable the fitting of a good quality Print to an existing frame.
This Print was of excellent quality. I would buy again.
One small gripe is that the image was not centred horizontally (about 3mm out) so needed trimming. No great hardship and may have been my fault in the setting-up.
Next time, I would choose to set the text below the picture to a smaller font.
Overall - Thank You! Looks good in its frame - Just as expected. I had a very expensive Gallery print of this before. It got damaged - hence the replacement. It compares very well.
