Not only being a successful footballer, David Beckham‘s figure also manifested as a fashion icon that often invited many highlights. No exception is a row of tattoos on his body. More than 40 tattoos adorned the skin of the body of the former Manchester United star. Some of them look very prominent and apparently have their own meaning for Beckham.
1. Solar System Tattoo
David Beckham’s tattoo that shows a picture of the solar system is located on the scalp, precisely above his left ear. If you want to imitate Becks by making a tattoo in the section, you might not regret it if you are not satisfied with the results. Because the tattoo will easily be covered with hair.
2. Rose Tattoo
On the birthday of his daughter, Harper, Beckham made a special tattoo on the left side of his neck by writing “pretty lady” aka beautiful woman and “Harper”. Some time afterward, Beckham was said to be still not satisfied and still wanted to express his feelings towards Harper. He then added a picture of a large rose above the previous tattoo.
3. Roman Numerals Tattoo
For ordinary people, the roman numerals on Beckham’s body may look normal. However, for those who understand it will surely immediately know that the tattoo shows the number seven. The same number as Beckham’s back number when defending England and Manchester United national teams.
4. Jesus and Three Angels Tattoo
David Beckham is a man with many talents, he also became a blueprint of the Renaissance man in this century. However, the rules of Renaissance art are not something that David Beckham refers to. David Beckham Jesus’ tattoo and three angels in the Sistine chapel represent Beckham and his three sons and hope to be able to keep all three of them to old age.
5. Guardian Angel Tattoo
David Beckham’s guardian angel tattoo adorns the center of his back, perhaps the simplest tattoo. However, this tattoo looks firm and makes it one of the best.
6. Tattoo “99”
Many of Beckham’s tattoos have large sizes. However, apparently, the former captain of the Three Lions had a small, simple tattoo that adorned his right little finger, namely a tattoo that read “99”. 99 refers to the year of his marriage to Victoria, and also has the same number as his grooming house, House 99.
7. Victoria
It’s not complete yet if from a row of Beckham tattoos, there is no tattoo intended for his own wife. After previously dedicating the Victorian name written in Sanskrit, Beckham also made a tattoo that represented his wife on the arm. Describing a woman using lingerie is certainly very synonymous with the figure of Victoria.
8. Women in the Forest
Not only is Beckham’s left chest decorated with beautiful artwork, a picture that is not less beautiful is also pinned on his right chest. Tattoos on the body part describe a woman who is in the forest. However, no one knows the meaning of the tattoo except Beckham and (maybe) the people around him.
9. Swallow Tattoo
Overall, the reason why David Beckham’s tattoo looks beautiful is that he always strives to build a balance of all the artwork on his body. The kite tattoo in his hand is an old-school tattoo that accompanies the avant garde style implied by tattoos on his body. Unlike angel tattoos that nest in the back of his body, this tattoo is relatively smooth and has no cliché meaning.
And there are still some other David Beckham tattoos as shown in the slide of the picture above this article.
