    This oil painting of Andrew Smith Hallidie by the artist, Harriet Foster Beecher (1854-1915) was completed in 1901, a year after Hallidie’s death.

    Evidence suggests that the painting was commissioned by the University of California or a friend(s) of the university. Hallidie was active as a regent of the University of California from the first meeting of the board in 1868 to his death, serving as a regent longer than any other regent.
