Video: Eleven Gallus Men: Drawing the Lisbon Lions

Video: Live Forever – Drawing the Lisbon Lions…

“Eleven gallus men from the west of Scotland took on the unbeatable “film star” footballers of Inter Milan…and won,” artist Stuart Beaton has tweeted.

You’ll enjoy these two videos watching Stuart’s drawings of the Lisbon Lions come together, the remarkable final results for each player and the little video snippets throughout.

Last week the Celtic Family said our final farewells to yet another of our heroes, the one and only Bertie Auld. No-one could be in any doubt just how much Bertie and indeed all the Lisbon Lions mean to the Celtic Support. Indeed in a twenty, forty, sixty, eighty even a hundred years from now Celtic Fans will still be talking about that magical night on 25 May 1967 and what these Bhoys achieved in the heat of Lisbon.

Have a wee look at Stuart’s video and there’s a link at the end where you can buy the prints. HH
