Unique, original Elton John painting

"Leopard On A Piano" - A unique and original, signed Elton John painting by Christopher Jimenez.

55" x 37" Framed

The oil painting of Elton John was painted by Christopher Jimenez, originally commissioned or painted for/by Elton when he lived in Montpelier Square, London. Elton did not take delivery from the artist so the seller, who lived nearby in Montpelier Street, bought the oil painting circa 1979 and other oils directly from the artist.

The painting depicts Elton in a humorous and eclectic period when he was also the owner of Watford Football Club. Christopher Jimenez was always focused on painting wildlife and in particular the great male lion/leopard, which is why a leopard is situated on Elton’s piano.

The combination of Elton in comic form and Chris’s love for wildlife creates this unique oil painting which has been in private ownership for 40+ years, it seems opportune to offer the painting for the first time to a serious buyer who loves the bizarre world of Elton’s life and amazing music.

Photographs of the painting can be sent by International Images and the painting can be viewed by appointment in London.
