Trump portrait to debut in National Portrait Gallery upon reopening

A portrait of former President Trump will be unveiled in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C., when it reopens, Washingtonian reports.

Trump's portrait will be the latest addition to the museum's "America’s Presidents" gallery, a permanent exhibit within the museum.

The portrait itself is only temporary, however — Trump's official portrait is still in the works. A museum spokesperson told Washingtonian that the final work of art is still in its initial phase of creation.

Typically, presidential portraits can take as long as two years from the time they are commissioned until they are debuted to the public.

As with the Obamas, the Trumps will be invited to the National Portrait Gallery for an unveiling ceremony when the artwork is ready to be displayed.

The gallery told Washingtonian it doesn't have an estimate for how many viewers the former president's new portrait will draw to the museum.

Does the painting include in the background a bunch of people stabbing him in the back?

I remember seeing a program on the National Portrait Gallery.

It was shown that the modern Democrats have huge portraits while the Republican ones are more modest.

Democrat legislators or even President Joseph stolen will enact an order or law to prohibit Donald Trump from visiting.

Obama’s portrait was made in China. No joke.

And Clinton's portrait is evidence in the Epstein trial.

Didn’t Epstein have that disgusting piece of “art” on his wall?

I would not allow my portrait to be in the same building as that disgusting Obama portrait that has defiled all previous presidents before him. What garbage.

Obama's portrait (if you could call it that) WAS a joke. I can't imagine how it must look next to the very professional portraits of every other POTUS.

His portrait was a joke because he was a joke.
