Joe DiMaggio Paintings by Mike Schacht (2)

Joe DiMaggio Paintings by Mike Schacht (2)

The # 5 on Joe DiMaggio’s uniform is our symbolic reference in these two magnificent, yet understated renderings of that legend’s significant swing and iconic batting style, captured here by Hall of Fame and Upper Deck artist Mike Schacht, a renowned painter whose work has been shown in galleries in New York and East Hampton, as well as in Sports Illustrated, and CNN. His style is minimal and graceful, highlighting form over realism and facial detail. His “DiMaggio’s Last Homerun,” an oil on canvas (framed in black, measuring 28 ? x 22 ?”), catches a moment in time where the emotion of a hero’s last stand takes the place of its photographic reality, and our other offering in this twosome, a pastel on artist’s board (framed in blue, contained in glass, and measuring 40 x 14 ?”), captures in a sequence of four separate images, almost cinematically, the Yankee Clipper’s full swing at bat, where on its first frame is the blue signature of Joltin’ Joe himself. Sublime, evocative and beautiful companion pieces.
