19 framed portraits of Amherst College alumni, faculty and administrators. The works were commissioned by President Stanley King (11th President, 1932-1946) for display in the Babbott Room of the Octagon, where the faculty held their meetings for many years. Sometime in the 1970s the works were featured in an exhibition entitled "Personages from the Past of Amherst College," in the Mead Art Museum.
