Realistisch schilderij in acryl van de Nederlands langebaanschaatser Jan Smeekens. Hij is gespecialiseerd in de 500 meter. Zijn bijnaam luidt "De Japanner uit Salland". Daarmee wordt hij vergeleken met Joji Kato en Hiroyasu Shimizu, vanwege zijn schaatshouding en -techniek. Sinds 2009 komt Smeekens uit voor de ploeg van coach Jac Orie, Team LottoNL-Jumbo (voorheen onder andere Team BrandLoyalty). Op de Olympische Spelen van 2014 won Smeekens op de 500 meter de zilveren medaille achter Michel Mulder, het verschil was twaalf duizendsten van een seconde.
Voor deze prestatie op de Olympische Spelen in Sochi kreeg hij van de bewoners in zijn geboorteplaats Raalte dit schilderij als cadeau aangeboden.

After two years of useless botchery, there was only one conclusion to draw: 'get autodidact, be a self-taught person!' Paul then left the academy to work for a living, but at the back of his mind there always loomed the passion of his life: to paint. At his spare time he painted and his efforts are characteristic as far as man plays an important role are concerned, or to put it in his own words: 'Each human being tinkers at his own existence, it is the source of inspiration to explain the non-verbal by way of painting'.
The paintings attracted attention at various exhibitions and he was frequently approached by trades-people, hotel-keepers, merchants. These customers were for the most part interested in large wall-paintings and decorations. In the year 2000 the painter develops a speciality that's quite unique: he applies himself to paint football pictures. After a year he gets the chance to realize an open exhibition for an indefinite time as well with the Dutch Football Union 'KNVB' in Zeist as in
