Tony Award winner Laurence Fishburne, who currently stars in Thurgood, is now immortalized in caricature at Sardi's.

The star was presented with his likeness by the New York eatery's owner, Max Klimavicius, July 16 at Sardi's on West 44th Street.

Thurgood — the George Stevens Jr.-penned one-man show based on the life of the late Civil Rights great and Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall — is currently playing an extended limited engagement at Broadway's Booth Theatre. Performances continue through Aug. 17.

Here is a look at the star's new honor:
