A striking limited edition screen print celebrating Lionel Messi during his iconic era at FC Barcelona. The poster features a hand-drawn illustration of Messi in action wearing the Barça away strip with the UNICEF sponsor and number 10 shirt, set against a bold vintage-style striped background in orange and teal — a nod to Barcelona’s blaugrana colours rendered in an alternative palette. Decorative pennant-style banners identify the subject as ‘#10 Lionel Andrés Barça — Lionel Messi — FC Barcelona.’ A memorable quote from Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger reads: ‘like a Playstation player.’ The distressed, aged aesthetic references classic football programmes and circus-style letterpress printing, giving it a timeless collectible quality. Signed in pencil by the artist ‘Zoran Lunes’ in the lower left corner and numbered 16/50, confirming this is a genuine limited edition from a small print run of only 50. The yellow dashed line at the bottom evokes a football pitch marking, adding a playful typographic detail. A must-have piece for FC Barcelona fans, Messi collectors, or lovers of contemporary football art and screen print culture.
Some foxing and surface marks visible on the teal stripe areas, particularly in the lower section and bottom-left corner. Minor scuffing and ink irregularities consistent with screen printing process (not damage). Some light creasing or wear at edges visible in close-up shots. Overall condition appears good to very good for a displayed print.
