Bill Clinton 2002

Nelson Shanks' 2002 portrait of Bill Clinton is a realistic depiction of the former president in a formal setting. Clinton is shown standing with a serious expression, holding a folder in his left hand, wearing a suit with a red and blue striped tie. The painting is a striking example of Shanks' mastery of portraiture, with meticulous attention to detail and a sense of gravitas that captures Clinton's stature.
