ABOUT THE PORTRAIT


The Portrait is an original pencil drawing by renown artist, David Alan Cooney.  His exquisite attention to detail in this portrait captures the essence of Chico, his loving kindness is evident in his eyes and his smile.  All of those who had the pleasure to know him recognize these attributes, and those who didn't have the fortune of meeting this truly great man will feel the warmth this portrait generates.


It was drawn in 2005 in pencil and the original drawing was subsequently signed by Chico himself.   


The portrait is recognized by the White Sox Organization as a powerful representation of the man who loved his homeland and her children with all of his heart.
