An Elvis Presely portrait painting "Praying Elvis" by renowned artist Ralph Wolfe Cowan. Elvis is depicted in his distinctive American eagle jumpsuit, and his gold horseshoe and diamond "TCB" rings are visible on his hand. Cowan's fame as a painter of world leaders impressed Elvis enough to have commissioned from him a painting, which became the only full-length portrait of the King ever allowed to hang in Graceland. The painting, oil on canvas, measures 30 x 24 inches and has been framed to 43.5 x 37.5 inches. In excellent condition.
