Athlete of the Century Painting, 2000
Artist LeRoy Neiman once said of the painting, "All of my experiences and observations of Ali are summed up in this portrait. The painting is for me the quintessential, colorful, confident Ali. It shows his fighting face, with that theatrical flair that...extended...far beyond the boxing ring."
