Existing comment: Nicholas Mariani's portrait of Francisco Lindor, 2017

Mariani drew this portrait of Francisco Lindor during art classes held at the Baseball Heritage Museum in Cleveland.

Twelve-year-old Nicholas Mariani from Cleveland, Ohio, found inspiration in Puerto Rican shortstop Francisco Lindor, his favorite player on the Cleveland Indians. As a seventh grader, he drew a charcoal portrait of Lindor that impressed his art instructor, parents, and even "Mr. Smile" himself.
