        @BeschlossDC This is great but the official White House portrait of JFK is stunning, haunting.

        @BeschlossDC Love Jamie Wyeth, love JFK! I knew the story about this portrait. Personally, I think it makes him look contemplative.

        @karlakakes56 @BeschlossDC You know the racing connection to the Wyeths, yes? Union Rags was owned by Phyllis Wyeth.

        @BeschlossDC I have a print of this portrait on my office wall. It is the best of JFK to me. EMK posed for Wyeth while he painted it.

        @BeschlossDC From what exactly did RFK reject it? Madame X it is not. But as far political portraits go - it seems pretty standard to me.
