PAUL W. "BEAR" BRYANT - Alabama Head Football Coach
1958-1983 • 323-85-17
Reflections of the Bear is Moore's reflected-image portrait of Coach Paul "Bear" Bryant which was inspired by a small vignette from his 1962 Iron Bowl Gold painting. Coach Bryant won a total of 323 games in his career. He garnered 232 of those wins at Alabama, including 12 bowl games and 6 national championships.
Daniel A. Moore's body of work, generated from a life-long labor of love, has grown well into the millions of dollars in created value. His fine art prints have been collected by art lovers across the U.S. and in several foreign countries. But above all, his fine art limited edition prints have become treasured heirlooms of his alma mater's faithful.
For each of his major releases the artist spends hundreds of hours and even 1,000+ hours in creating the original oil painting — the all-important masterwork for a fine art print production. Beginning in 1979, with the sale of The Goal Line Stand for $10,000, his subsequent masterworks have sold for up to $80,000. In recent years the artist's original oils – each typically measuring 36" x 48" – have been certifiably appraised to establish fair market prices for up to $239,000 for The Tradition Continues ($1,870/sq. in.).
