Description
John F Kennedy Official Portrait by Aaron Shikler was painted posthumously at the request of Jacqueline Kennedy in 1970. Unlike most presidential portraits, Kennedy is depicted as pensive, with eyes downcast and arms folded. It is a character study. According to Shikler, Mrs. Kennedy’s only stipulation was for him to create an image different from “the way everybody else makes him look, with the bags under his eyes and that penetrating gaze. I’m tired of that image.” Shikler drew a few sketches based on photographs, one of which was inspired by Ted Kennedy’s somber pose at his brother’s grave, his arms crossed and his head bowed. Jackie chose that sketch as the final pose. Cool JFK. Are you a cool John F. Kennedy fan who loves President Kennedy, JFK and cigars?
