Atlanta 1996. Marie-José Pérec, 400m © Christian Rochard/ L'Équipe July 29, 1996. "Her Highness Marie-Jo II", was the headline in "L'Équipe" the day after her magical lap (of the track) in 48'25 (still the 6th fastest time in the 400m). In 1992, by winning gold, the Guadeloupean had entered the history of French sport. This time, it is the history of sport in its entirety, as she is the first athlete, men and women alike, to retain her Olympic title over this distance. Unique later print. Edition 1/1. Printed on Hahnemühle FineArt Baryta Satin 300g paper. Flamant art frame. 53 X 80 cm
