The Big Five

LeRoy Neiman's "The Big Five" captures the raw power and majesty of Africa's most iconic wildlife in a dynamic composition that exemplifies the artist's signature energetic style. This 2001 serigraph depicts the lion, elephant, buffalo, leopard, and rhinoceros in a vibrant celebration of animal vitality, rendered through Neiman's characteristic bold brushwork and luminous color palette. The work showcases the artist's mastery of the serigraph medium, with rich layered inks that bring movement and presence to these magnificent creatures, whether in repose or active engagement with their environment. Created from an edition of 585, this signed example (147/585) represents a significant work from Neiman's prolific career documenting sports, culture, and nature. The serigraph's generous dimensions (23" x 43 1/2" sheet size) allow the compositions to command attention while the framed presentation at 35 1/2" x 55 1/4" makes this ready for immediate display. For collectors seeking works that combine Neiman's celebrated technique with subject matter that transcends mere documentation to capture the essence of his subjects, this piece offers an accessible entry point into his wildlife studies, merging fine art sensibility with the artist's lifelong passion for capturing life in motion.
