In the industrial heartland of Wolverhampton, amidst the vibrant Midlands, a footballing genius was born on 24th March 1959. Derek Statham – affectionately known as "The Prodigal Son of The Hawthorns" – would grow to become a stalwart at West Bromwich Albion, forever immortalized in the annals of football history.
Capturing his image through a classic pose, this vintage minimalist, retro style illustration using only light and shade to draw out the personality, identity, soul, emotions and determined gaze of a true winner.
It immortalises him in a moment in time and takes you back to that moment in time. It tells their story and honours their memory. It immortalises them at the peak of their powers.
This distinctive and unique graphic vertical band design using colours, that are synonymous with West Bromwich Albion, vividly represents Derek with an artistic elegance that pays homage to his illustrious career.
Emerging from the youth ranks, Statham's journey to greatness was one of unwavering determination and unyielding passion. His exceptional vision on the field and impeccable positioning made him an indispensable figure in West Brom's defence, while his delicate touch and swift pace enabled rapid transitions from defence to attack. A master of both the sliding tackle and pin-point cross, Derek's playing style epitomised the spirit and grit of the Midlands.
Among his most memorable moments was the 1981-82 season, where Derek showcased his genius on the grand stage by scoring an imperious long-range goal against Manchester United, weaving past defences like a knife through butter. His performance in the iconic 1978 match against Valencia, in the UEFA Cup, also remains etched in the memories of those fortunate enough to witness his seamless blend of skill and tenacity.
This Vertical Band Poster encapsulates those precious moments, drawing out the essence of Derek Statham’s character and the raw emotion of his game. Capturing a defining pose, it serves as a timeless tribute to the player who embodied the spirit of West Bromwich Albion. The elegance of the illustration, combined with a distinctive minimal design and sophisticated typography, renders this poster an absolute must-have for fans and collectors alike.
Celebrate the legacy of a footballing great with this stunning piece, a testament to Derek Statham’s enduring influence at The Hawthorns.
Frames

Why choose our frames?
- Ready-to-Hang: Each frame arrives with a hanging kit, so you can display your artwork instantly.
- Premium Materials Only: We don’t compromise with low-cost MDF or plastic frames. Instead, we use responsibly sourced oak or ash wood, chosen for durability and a refined finish.
- Distinctive Finishes: Available in natural wood, black, or white, each frame highlights the unique wood grain for a classic or modern touch.
- Protective & Durable: Combined with our semi-gloss silk prints, frames help preserve colour vibrancy and protect against light and moisture damage.
Protective Packaging
Every framed print is pre-assembled, then carefully packaged with protective corners, wrap, and strong box edging. For extra sturdiness, I-beams are used, and multi-item orders (up to 3 frames per package) are securely combined.
