Near the entrance of the Boone Pickens Legacy Experience is a 9-foot-tall portrait of Pickens.
It’s the same photo that Forbes Magazine took of him when he was 88. Pickens loved the photo, and Andrew Anway, who’s the architect and designer of the museum, loves it now.
The portrait encapsulates how the grinning, almost ornery-looking Pickens was still full of life, even at 88.
“We really love it, because it sort of shows him in his prime, but also kind of having this bright smile about him,” Anway said.
Pickens died on Sept. 11, 2019 at 91.
