Headline Unveiling of a Portrait of the Late Dag Hammarskjöld by the Secretary-General

Caption Description Secretary-General U Thant unveiled today a portrait of the late Dag Hammarskjöld at the north end of the Secretariat Lobby. The portrait, which is by the Swedish painter Bo Beskow, has been acquired by the United Nations through the generosity of the Ford Foundation and of Bonniers, the Swedish publishing house. The portrait measures 116 cm. x 130 cm. and represents many years' work by the painter, who was a close friend of the late Secretary-General. Mr. Beskow also painted the fresco in the Meditation Room and the mural in the Penthouse of the Dag Hammarskjöld Library.
