Presenter Commemorative

This piece was created to commemorate the historic moment when Ronaldinho, the football legend who has brought joy and inspiration to millions, became the presenter of the Ballon d’Or.
Arilès de Tizi captures Ronaldinho’s essence—freedom, creativity, and joy—and translates it onto the canvas, presenting a dialogue between sports and art that resonates worldwide.

The play of light and vibrant colors reflects Ronaldinho’s iconic smile and magical style of play, while the golden sphere of the Ballon d’Or symbolizes glory and hope carried into the future. More than a tribute to one man, this artwork stands as a cultural legacy to be shared with the world.
