As the result of widespread insistence on the part of admirers of the famous University figure, a portrait of Charles Townsend Copeland '82, Boylston Professor of Rhetroric and Oratory, Emeritus, has just been completed by another distinguished alumnus of Harvard, Charles Hopkinson '91, and will ultimately be placed in the Harvard Club in New York City.

Countless requests that a new likeness he made of Professor Copeland led to a popular subscription. Instant response was made by many friends and graduates; in a short time the required amount had been raised and Mr. Hopkinson engaged as artist. The work is now on exhibition at the Gild of Boston Artists at 162 Newbury Street.

The painter is acknowledged as one of the country's most brilliant. After his graduation he studied here and at Paris; early in his career he was an exhibitor at the leading seasonal art shows; and in 1919 he was commissioned to paint pictures of war celebrities.
