"Graceland, 50th Anniversary" is Thomas Kinkade's painting released at the Graceland Estate of Elvis Presley in March, 2007. This release of of his tribute to the King of Rock 'n Roll has become one of Thomas Kinkade's most popular paintings.
The year 2007 marked a very special anniversary for Graceland. In March 1957, Elvis purchased Graceland for his home. To commemorate this historic event, Thomas Kinkade created "Graceland, 50th Anniversary" and unveiled it during the event.
Kinkade visited Graceland in September 2006 to paint a study for the painting, and had this to say:"Elvis Presley created rock and roll and changed music forever. Graceland was his refuge from the demands of his fame. My hope is that I will capture on canvas a bit of the home that he loved so much. As for me as an artist, I create art that is accessible for everyone, just as Elvis created music that is enjoyed by millions of people the world over. The Elvis I want to celebrate is the private man; the inspiration of how one person can use his or her God-given talent to bring joy to millions of people."--Thomas Kinkade
