The portrait is purchased by Vaasa University Foundation. Previous Rectors have also had their portraits painted in the end of their Rector terms. The portraits are on view in Nyman-hall in the Konttori-building.
The University of Vaasa's long-term Rector, Matti Jakobsson, will end his term at the end of 2014. He leaves behind a dynamic university, which will have its 300th doctor defend its dissertation in December. Suvi Ronkainen will begin as the University’s new Rector in early 2015.
