The other end would be a much better likeness....

(24,461 posts)8. Sorry, but for a presidential portrait, it kind of looks amateur hour.
Very blah and not distinct. Very pedestrian.
So on edit: I was under the impression that this was the one going in the Portrait Gallery, and I was incorrect. It's part of C-Span's exhibit that tours the nation.
Still looks pedestrian.
And as far as the Presidential Wing of the Portrait Gallery goes, I think after Obama's portrait goes up, that'll be it for me. If America no longer takes this position seriously, why should I?
