This original pen and ink drawing by Michael Jackson features the iconic character Bart Simpson from "The Simpsons." The illustration depicts Bart leaning against a structure, wearing a shirt featuring Jackson's "M.J." initials within a circle. To the right, a sign reads "Love" accompanied by a smiley face. The work is signed in Jackson's distinct, large-scale cursive signature in the lower left. Jackson had a well-documented affinity for animation and a personal friendship with "The Simpsons" creator Matt Groening, even famously guest-starring in the series. This piece serves as a unique crossover of two major pillars of 1990s pop culture.
