Leopold Seyffert
Leopold Gould Seyffert (1887 – 1956) was an American painter. Born in California, Missouri, and raised in Colorado and then Pittsburgh, his career brought him to New York City, via Philadelphia and Chicago. In New York City, the dealer Macbeth established him as one of the leading portraitists of the 20th century and his over 500 portraits continue to decorate the galleries, rooms and halls of many of America's museums and institutions.
