Barcelona 1992. USA-Croatia Final (Jordan-Petrovic), basketball © Nicolas Luttiau/L'Équipe 8 August 1992. Drazen Petrovic, the Croatian virtuoso, against Michael Jordan, the American legend. It was a duel within a duel for the final of all the premieres: Croatia had just gained independence; the NBA pros were now allowed to take part in the Games. The Americans obviously won (117-85), but the Croatians held out valiantly. "For us, the money was worth gold," Petrovic said after the game. We are happy men." The following year, Jordan would announce his (first) retirement; Petrovic would kill himself on the road. Single later print. Edition 1/1. Printed on Hahnemühle FineArt Baryta Satin 300g paper. Flamant art frame. 80 x 120 cm
