This painting is inspired by St. Elmo Steak House c.1902 in Indianapolis.
This historic restaurant is legendary in Indy just like the biggest spectacle in racing- THE Indy 500. The two are joined in this work with the historic race in the background and classic checkered race flags. The famous Mario Andretti is sharing tales of Indy 500 legends like the Andrettis, the Unsers, the Mears brothers, A.J. Foyt and many more. Beloved Colt quarterback Peyton Manning and famous car collector and vintage racer Bruce Meyer are also dining in “Taste of Victory”. This painting comes from the heart of a hoosier painter. It has a hand carved and gilded custom frame .
