This is a portrait of Peter "Papa" McManus, I believe (Papa because McManus is still family owned and operated). It's on the back wall of the booth area of McManus.
When I first encountered it, I thought it was a picture of Pope John Paul II with no frills. From the kindly smile to the grandfatherly squinty eyes, it looks like it was just one of those days when the Pope had to head into work to take care of office stuff. Being the Pope can't always be about addressing thousands, cruising in the Pope-Mobile, and being infallible. Sometimes emails have to get sent, faxes have to get read, and conference calls have to get taken.
