American history is replete with mafia sagas, and even today the American public cannot get enough of mob portrayals on the big (and small) screens. This mafia obsession is one of the reasons for HBOs hugely successful show “The Sopranos”. One other reason was the tremendous cast which featured New Jersey native James Gandollfini as a New Jersey mob boss, trying to keep both his families in line. This large canvas print is made from the 2001 original painting by Karen O’Neil Ganci. Limited to 500 copies, this approximately 35 x 29.5 inch canvas is numbered “412/500” and contains 15 black sharpie signatures of the most popular cast members. Includes: James Gandolfini, Lorraine Bracco, Edie Falco, Michael Imperioli, Dominic Chianese, Stevie Van Zant, Tony Sirico, Robert Iler, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Aida Turturro, Drea DeMatteo, Steven Schirripa, John Ventimiglia, Vincent Pastore and Federico Castellucio. Framed to a dimension of 34 x 39 inches. A portion of the inner frame does protrude into the canvas which has left a vertical mark down the middle. Full LOA from PSA/DNA.
