Limited edition color 26 x 22.25 serigraph of artwork by boxing great Muhammad Ali, numbered 139/500, entitled ‘Float Like a Butterfly and Sting Like a Bee,’ which depicts a victorious Ali standing over his down opponent, Sonny Liston, after their first title fight in 1964, signed prominently in the lower corner in pencil by Ali. The reverse bears a “1979 Herbert Muhammad Enterprises” copyright stamp. In very fine condition. In 1979, towards the end of Ali's professional boxing career, he produced a handful of silk screens depicting or interpreting a few of his various interests: boxing, social justice, and Islam, to name a few. Ali's business manager, Jabir Herbert Muhammad, approached New York City's Ro Gallery to exclusively sell these signed limited edition prints.
