This framed art print reproduces the iconic 1924 oil painting by American Ashcan School artist George Bellows. The scene captures the dramatic moment from the 1923 heavyweight championship bout when Luis Firpo knocked Jack Dempsey out of the ring. Bellows' composition is noted for its dynamic energy and high-contrast lighting, emphasizing the physical power of the athletes and the chaotic reaction of the ringside crowd. The print is presented in a classic wooden frame with a neutral mat, preserving the classic aesthetic of the original work.
