PORTRAIT OF PRES. LOWELL NOW HANGS IN FACULTY ROOM

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

When President Lowell's report was read to the Overseers on Monday afternoon a newly finished portrait of President Lowell, seated in the President's chair, hung on the North wall of the Faculty Room at University Hall, joining the gallery of former professors, donors, and presidents.

The canvas is the work of John Singer Sargent, whose portrait of Major Henry Lee Higginson is hung in the Union, and whose wall paintings adorn both sides of the main stairway in Widener.

It was announced yesterday that the painting was recently presented to the University by the Board of Overseers and by several former Overseers who have served under President Lowell.
