A. Richard Boera continues his look at the portraits of Theodore Roosevelt painted by Fulop Laszlo. In this second installment, Boera traces the provenance of and locates the original 1908 portrait and five copies. Boera identifies the three artists who made copies of the portrait, and he notes the location of each. Boera also discusses a lesser known Lazlo portrait of Roosevelt executed in 1910, and he notes the other portraits Laszlo painted of Roosevelt family members such Kermit Roosevelt.
A Laszlo painting, a collage of some of his portraits, and two photographs supplement the text.
