EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Charles Wellford Leavitt, a prominent figure in American landscape architecture and urban planning during the early 20th century. Painted by Cecilia Beaux in 1911, this oil on canvas artwork showcases Leavitt's commanding presence and his deep connection to the world of design. Leavitt stands tall and confident, with his arms folded across his chest, exuding an air of authority and expertise. The room behind him is filled with various equipment, including a table covered with plans and instruments. A large window bathes the space in natural light, casting a soft glow on Leavitt's face as he gazes into the distance. The artist skillfully portrays Leavitt's character through her meticulous attention to detail. Every brushstroke brings out his strong features - from his neatly groomed beard to the intensity in his eyes. The three-quarter length composition adds depth and dimension to this portrait, allowing viewers to truly appreciate Leavitt's stature within his field. As we delve into this image further, it becomes clear that there is more than meets the eye. Leavitt was not only an accomplished professional but also had a personal connection to Beaux as they were cousins. This familial bond adds another layer of significance to this artwork. Displayed at Huntington Library, Art Museum, and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, CA. , this painting serves as a testament to both Leavitt's legacy and Beaux's artistic prowess. It
