That maybe a portrait of Robert Lenkiewicz but it wasn't painted by Robert Lenkiewicz. I believe this particular piece showed up for auction on eBay a couple of times in 2009 and was removed from sale on at least one occasion due to complaints received over it's alleged authenticity.

Yes, I would like to see this image being taken off this site ...unless of course a new section is started for works NOT by Lenkiewicz.
