- The White House hosts a unique and historic collection of artwork: Portraits of the men who have held the highest office in the land. Portraitist John Howard Sanden talks with correspondent Mo Rocca about the pressures and pleasures of committing the likeness of a U.S. president or first lady to canvas. Rocca also explores the long-held and bipartisan tradition of artfully preserving the occupants of the White House.

Kennedy’s portrait it’s hauntingly beautiful
I’ve actually seen it in person. This video doesn’t do it Justice
And Jackie's shows her elegance, her beauty, and the anguish that shaped the rest of her life. Just a stunning portrait.
Kennedys portrait is by far my favorite.
To me JFK is the Most Marvelous Portrait in the house and so different and Screams Radical Times u dont get the sense of Peace even tho its Beautiful. Lincoln os a Damn Classic That portrait nailed it
Cant imagine how It looks in person both JFK and Lincoln
Love the camaraderie between GW and Michelle.
The DC swamp families chummy chummy
If that’s the case then Trump is a mass murderer to over 250,000 Americans and growing
@@evanmaguire2280 Yeah not China's fault LOL Go back to bed
@@PS-vc2yz We could’ve still contained it here. Ha get educated
@@evanmaguire2280 You mean like Alzheimers Joe continuing to allow flights from China and calling Trump xenophobic. You need to read a little rather than drink the left wing Kool Aid
That JFK portrait just has a whole different feeling to the entire White House. JFK was different
I watch the unveiling of George W’s portrait every now and then. I love how George and Obama get along even though they didn’t agree politically.
That's how most people should be
It's one of my favorite TH-cam videos. It reminds me of the times of civility and unity. It gives me hope that we could once again return to that feeling and that time.
unlike someone lol
Proof we can get along in a bipartisan government if we treat one another with respect.
Lol 2 centuries of proof is right there
That all of the politicians are simply looting us
*I'm uncertain how I feel over 'JFK's' portrait*
*It gives me a feeling of 'Majesty' and 'Sorrow' at the same instant, and a sense of longing*
And Jackie's painting is really haunting.
I think that's what makes JFK's portrait so great
It shows his dismay with a life unfinished, like someone expressing disbelief of what happened by shaking their lowered head!
Gerry Nightingale, I believe it is appropriate that JFK is looking down thoughtfully due to his having been assassinated.
@@Rebecca-he2lx *I believe you are a 'thread-troll' trying to be 'sarcastically funny' and failing*
( JFK was elected by the largest 'Popular Vote' in American history, equalled only by Obama in his first term)
Portraits indeed convey much more than photos, I hope that this tradition stays alive❤️
Jackie had such a soothing voice
The Eisenhower portrait was really good. I agree with President Kennedy's friend that he should be looking forward not downward he was too good looking of a man not to show his face and eyes.
Thanks CBS I live for videos and stories like this!
The FDR painting is my favorite
lol he made you pay tax to help your workers during the depression & yet you still voted for him
Stephen Ryl I just like the painting
@@Multi1163 calm down
@@ChocolateYoshi what do you mean (calm down) I just though it was funny because rich people hated FDR
President Washington is mine. He’s one of mysteries..
A huge and big congrats to the past 44 genuine and honest, as well as hardworking Presidents of the United States!
Well most of them anyway
Well, 43 Grover Cleveland was president twice
@@evanmaguire2280 talking about the current in the WH probably
@Ryan Chua how?
This brings to mind that Simpsons episode where Marge painted Mr. Burns naked.
I hope President-elect Biden would host an unveiling of the Obamas’ portraits.
I think that would be perfect
and i hope trump doesn't get a portrait
@@chasec143 we have to remember him, so that we avoid choosing that sort of man again.
I am CERTAIN that Biden will extend this courtesy to the Obamas during his administration. I believe this is CERTAIN. This has been long, LONG OVERDUE.
@@chasec143 will his mugshot do?
A Master of his craft
Perfect place for a Donald and Melania portrait would be The Four Seasons Landscape Company garage doors. Rudy can do the unveiling of their mugshots.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
love it!
Imagine a day where a President who lost to someone, and later on went on to be President, we’re so gracious
How far this nation has fallen...
And it will fall more if Biden wins. To think people are voting for him as they believe he will some how end racism and covid …delusional.
Pius X oh, shut up.

For # 45, can we just hang a sign that says, "Nothing to See Here".
Show some damn respect for your president
@@ladistar He's the president of our country, but deserves no respect from any US Citizen.
@makee markee Damn proud of it!
No call it the "Nothing Burger"
Put his portrait in the basement where it can't scare the children.
Would love to see Obama's portrait by John Howard. Glad there's Kehinde Wiley's @ the National Portrait Gallery.
6:31 Bush had a funny joke
The whole thing was pretty good. He started his speech with "I'm glad to see you all came to my hanging"
@@kevandre 😂😂😂😂
@@kevandre LOL I love that man, he is a man of character, we love you W.
Reflections of a saner America!
The portrait of J.Kennedy is very nice. She looks elegant and classy.
Very interesting some stunning portraits in this collection
We know who's NOT getting one.
Wow! Will Trump get one? I hadn’t thought about that.
I’m no Trump fan but wouldn’t he have to get one??
@@scottmoore1614 yes he’ll get one. Every president does
Every president gets one. Even if it's just for the archives and not displayed.
@@lightyagami3492 🤢
This is so wholesome, thank you for this! ♡
The Kennedy one is really good
6:15 It's so weird hearing 2004 pronounced as "twenty-o-four." Typically I only hear 2010 onward pronounced "twenty-X."
But we say 1906 as "nineteen-o-six".
That’s just this guy. It’s two thousand four
I think they should replace the Herbert Hoover Official Portrait with one that has a younger version of his likeness. He wasn't that old when he was President, only late 50s.
CBS is amazing thank you!
You are a brainwashed idiot. Thank you.
The photo at 3:06 is backwards!
Old black and white photography mirrored photos
01:36 Whole Foods endorsement 😂.
The mug shot of Trump after arrest would be a nice painting of 45
Wouldn't it be great if Biden were able to do Obama but not Trump, and no one ever do Trump.
Yes. I was thinking the same. Just skip 45...he was a God-awful fluke.
Narh he's great they defiantly will.
@@12daleks What's so great about the Divider in Chief?
Yeah that would be awful. Obama weaponizes the FBI, CIA and DOJ against Trump and you think he's inviting him for a portrait unveiling?? Think again. Biden doesn't even know what day it is so good luck with that.
@@insanetubegain You're right, Obama was awful.
5:44 so rare to see reagan laugh
I guess Biden will have to host the Obamas.
Do you think he'll host Trump's too? As much as I don't like our current President I hope Biden will take the higher road and at least extend the invitation
I believe this is CERTAIN. I am looking forward to this.
Biden should do both Obama and Trump
@@lukasventouras9871 "Hail to the Chief" played on kazoos would be very fitting when DT returns to the White House.
@@RaymondHng LMAO
That's true a painting tells more of the time it was made
Of course, Trump wouldn't do it. That man is just disrespctful.
Ok
To be fair to President Trump, Obama has been horrible to him. I can see why he doesn’t want to be near him.
@@warrenrhinerson6373 true but up until this year Obama has tried to respect his predecessor
@@poi2587 not even close. Obama has not been respectful to his successor really at all except on two occasions: when Trump was invited to the White House and Inauguration Day. Barack Obama tried to sabotage trumps campaign twice, he wire tapped the campaign and illegally obtained a FISA warrant to spy on atleast six Trump campaign officials. He did this on order to rig the 2016 election in favor of Hillary Clinton, something called Spygate. Obama then used the FBI to sabotage the incoming Trump administration by going after the incoming national security advisor for something even the FBI didn’t think was a crime. Obama has also taken credit for most of the work Trump is actually done. For instance Barack Obama claimed that all the “economic miracles“ trump was promising promising were impossible and then tried to take credit for himself when they actually happen. Trump also got four historic peace deals in the Middle East in less than a month, Obama tried to take credit for that to. So far the only major accomplishment of the Trump administration Obama has not try to take credit for is renegotiating NAFTA. Go to be fair this is not exactly new behavior for Barack Obama, he injected himself and his accomplishments into the biographies of every American president since Calvin Coolidge with the exceptions of Eisenhower and Ford and tried to take credit for their achievements Tomas well. If I were in a similar situation to Trump and there was a president who treated me that badly and try to take credit for all of my achievements I wouldn’t let that portrait in the White House either while I’m there.
@@warrenrhinerson6373 exactly how has Obama been horrible to him? You can’t say that and not give examples. I can give you a 701 page book of total lies and disrespect that Trump has said about Obama. But the opposite? I can’t think of a single example of a lie or disrespect. Please, enlighten me.
This video is very interesting and I like the honesty behind the video.
I fully expect that a portrait of Trump will eventually be commissioned and the result will be hanging in the public bathroom, looking into the mirror applying orange make-up while simultaneously tweeting away on his Chinese iPhone.
Portrait in the bathroom would be fitting
Dude Trump isa clown but that painting would someone's work, placing it in a bathroom would be very disrespectful
@@criticalhard Yes it would. To the bathroom.
DT would want his portrait bigger than the previous presidents.
Still Painting is the best to use to portrait presidents
Can you imagine Trump graciously unveiling the portrait of a predecessor? He wants to unveil his own portrait, sometime during his third term - with his face on Mt. Rushmore in the background.
In his wet dreams
Trump refuse third term.
thowe624 My point exactly. There is only one portrait that means anything to him.
THAT(fortunately) will NEVER happen .
Greatest president of all time Donald j trump biden first senial president
🙏 Wow! 👏👏👏👏👏
Biden will honor and host the Obama's portrait unveiling.
Don’t forget trumps
Enough oh my god ❤️🇮🇩
ok, so this means it will be Biden to invite Obama to unveil his portrait? if yes, it will be a great moment, I believe :)
🙏 MY MON Thank You Further😭
I have to question Mo’s interpretation of TR’s portrait. Roosevelt biographer, David McCullough, described the Sargent portrait as capturing the melancholy that plagued TR following the loss of so many loved ones so early in his life - his father while he was at Harvard, both his first wife, Alice, and his mother on the same night while he was a NY state assemblyman. Alice’s death, following the birth of their daughter - also named Alice - poisoned TR’s relationship with her, one of the principal reasons for her outrageous behaviours and her disastrous marriage to Speaker of the House, Nicholas Longworth. The American Experience documentary on TR goes into his persistent depression, what he referred to in his journals as “black care.” Roosevelt’s posture in the portrait may be commanding, but his eyes are filled with pain.
th-cam.com/video/SfhRWEXa9bc/w-d-xo.html
The description of the darker Roosevelt starts around 21:30.
Unity is needed
Only when it’s for the left right?
A couple of points: 1st, I’m a descendant of Gilbert Stuart and one of the several original versions of the Washington portrait is on display in the Senate chamber of the Old Colony House in Newport, RI. What makes the portrait truly special is that, in addition to Washington’s eyes following you around the room, his foot also follows you as well. 2nd, Mo’s comment about the confidence seen in the Teddy Roosevelt portrait is a bit off. If you listen to David McCullough’s narration of the PBS American Experience four part episode on TR, he focused attention on the Singer portrait and, specifically, Roosevelt’s eyes. His explanation that you can see the pain and sadness in TR’s eyes from the tragedies he experienced in his life (early loss of his father, the loss of his mother and first wife on the same night as his first child, Alice, was born, and the depression or “black care” that plagued him most of his adult life). Singer captured his almost wistful pain intuitively and insightfully. Physically, TR appears masterful, but as soon as you focus on the eyes, his confidence his lacking.
Wouldn’t it be hilarious is Monica Lewinsky was in bill Clinton’s portrait.
back then they liteerally knocked down walls to save a painting of our founding father.... and now we have people tearing down statues of him.
Hail yeah
I'm feel good 😊
*_1:29_**_ What is that sublime statue behind him?_*
one gave you, Optimism, courage and hope. The current one is manipulating your fear against you, so he can benefit by lying and deceiving, in which put us back in the 1930s. where this same rhetoric was once tolerated and costed many innocent human lives. We shall continue to keep achieving for more, give those the same opportunity to have a happy life, where food and water are no longer an issue. earth has so much to offer if cultivation was a priority, but greed has poisoned our minds and neglect the same grounds that gives us life.
RIP John

Out of the first 5 presidents, James Monroe is the one person I want to see a photo of.
Why?
If you want to see what Monroe looked like, I think based on paintings and portraits, the young actor Miles Teller resembles that President a lot.
Why does the Jfk one have a different style than the rest
It was painted after his death. Very different feel.
I think Kennedy's is the most reverent and interesting of all of them. To me, there's no doubt it was painted during the Bay of Pigs and the weight of that decision and the fallout was heavy on his mind. He famously said "It was my decision, the buck stops here with me"..... JFK was the last great democrat. He'd be a republican today.
President Kennedy's portrait was posthumous
Perhaps Trump could pose, tweeting from his golden toilet?
Can't waite to see the Obama's
th-cam.com/video/uKbtYvJd1Ks/w-d-xo.html here it is
The Obamas have already had theirs done.
I hope you stock up on orange paint for Trump's portrait
I'm sure and glad that #46 and Dr. Biden, will be doing it for #44 and Mrs. Obama.
I wonder how Biden will navigate this? Will he do a Barack and Trump painting and welcome them both?
I really love the new style of Obama's portrait. The classics obviously are great, but it's cool to see them change it up.
obama doesn't have a presidental portrait yet. the ones floating around are from other exhibitions, but they aren't the white house portraits
Neighbors and friends, Robert Doel helped shape my life as an artist and visionary.
I have so many beautiful memories of Robert Doel who lived across the street from me in Russell, Kansas.
He lived in a white 2 story home and green shutters if my memory serves me. I loved his house, sometimes
visiting the interior out of curiosity, and night and day became one, with snowstorms that seemed unnatural.
I was impressed with Roberts's accomplishments throughout life.
So loved Dawsons Drug Store and the visual experience of the luxury of items available to a child.
Then imagine a dream coming true with the Dream Theater on Main street when I was 13.
Our technology age was transforming as our dreams began to manifest.
our awareness to the point that we realized it could talk to you.
You were part of my past and now you
are present, due to the shift in technology and appearing on TV ~ in my home in Hawaii 60 years later.
Growing up, I couldn't imagine TV would eventually talk to you. Did you?
Then the phone was a message that in time God would speak to me audibly, and I transformed
and created Art that the world has never experienced before, visually communicating with the soul of
Jesus and Marian of the ancient time, I shared with Jesus in a cave.
In my later years, my third eye opened and I
was taken back to the cave a year after my art creation yet still remains my awareness of my past life.
Growing up with country folks is something to be proud of and you learn
to appreciate those values of friendship, health, family, and sharing our life together.
What a joy I felt in your TV appearance, knowing the pain of getting old, as I too feel it at 80. Our consciousness
shifts and it becomes one of the beautiful memories of how our true self shaped our lives in remembrance
of our values that shaped our future. God has blessed us dear Neighbor and Friend for your awareness
of your appearance. Was it all the visits into the courthouse and the Russell State Bank?
And now another miracle in connecting with you through video and we again are part of the dream we
created, sharing God's love with you as our journey now is to return home.
Now fast forward in, remembering how Russell, Kansas shaped our lives to create miracles
As an artist, my last vision was to enter into the cave with Jesus, 2,000 years ago when I
walked with him and is now visible as our Christianity and that Jesus is Alive through my soul memories. It is a language of love.
Happy trails Robert and Elizabeth.
I can't wait to see what Obama's portrait would look like.
Trump doesnt want that ...we gotta get that orange thing out!!vote!!
@@salmineo4132I agree you ain't lying about that man
If Biden got to unveil Obama's portrait that would be seriously quite an emotional ceremony.
I thought Obama's portrait was already done. It was with that green leafy background. I guess that wasn't the official White House portrait. Didn't like Michelle's rendering.....
@@babyfir77 thats how epic his admin was,other portraits are already iconic of him and Michelle
Paul Jennings, you don't hear that a lot. Probably did all the heavy work to save a national treasure.
I look forward to the respected portraits of President Donald Trump and future President Ivanka Trump. #USA 🇺🇸
Fun fact: hail to the chief didn’t come about until president Polk in the 1840s, cause his wife thought he’d enter a room unnoticed due to his modest height
why not doing a looking s it the vice House with past pics and others who sit into the job form the odd years too,
6:30 never have seen George W. Bush with such a great fun smile. Good joke as well!
I have never liked Sanden's portraits. Gilbert Stuart and John Singer Sargent for me. I have spent many an enjoyable hour looking at their works, in Boston and elsewhere.
Jane forgot...🇺🇸
Vote Joe Biden November 2020 / Vote Amy McGrath Kentucky November 2020
YES. GET REKT MITCH!
No
If you want more division in the US then go for it.
Nah. I hate seeing all these Amy mcmeth ads all over the damn place and it’s just a huge turnoff for me
Wonder if Joe is gonna invite Don to the WH for this
Heck no. He doesn't deserve one.

LOL unveiling of Obama portrait in Trump White House?? 🤣🤣🤣 I would love to see that comedic day! 😂😂😂
Topy clips from 5year makkay 5year
The Obamas should have their official portraits unveiled.
vsanchez ugh. Two liars and fakers.

Hate MUCH?!!!
Im gonna draw the jfk portrait im 8 but i think it will be great
Stop blaming Trump y'all. It takes two to tango. Period
What is it bush good for?!
Trumps portrait can be found in any stable....the rear of the horse and the piles it leaves....
45’s will be crayon and sharpie.
Just reading these comments tells me how divided this country is. A true shame.
The comments section on a TH-cam video is not representative of the population. The biggest losers sit on the internet typing comments all day.. also other countries are creating fake accounts that pretend to act as Americans. This is not reality.
@@MoonPact I realize it does not represent the entire country sir. Also I realize everyone is entitled to their say. This was a general observation on my part, based on what I was reading at the time. Also it is based on what is being covered on the news. Have a pleasant day.
As an artist I would not paint Trump. I love the Obamas' portraits and can't wait to see them unveiled.
But when a long train of abuses a usurpations,pursuing invariably the same object evinces a disign to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is they right , it is they duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their futere security.
Tap doan tap the ung hon cho no hon
Trump’s portrait will show the President on his phone, tweeting furiously.
Lmaoooo right
@makee markee, 🤨. She weaponized and politicized the IRS on behalf of Obama and plead the fifth when testifying before Congress about it. I voted for the President in 2016 and 2020.
If Melania is painted, I wonder if she’ll have clothes on.
Had Hillary won, would Hillary and Bill not get new portraits?
I think about this every day.
now finally obamas portrait will hang in the white house collection now that trump is gone
I’ll wonder how Trump’s picture will look like
If it was President Trump Portrait, I would have let BURN. 😁😁😁
Don't expect Trump to do that, trust
JFK’s portrait isn’t “mournful” - it’s pensive, reflective. It’s unique! Eisenhower, the Clintons, and the Bushes were very well-done. Pat Nixon and Rosalynn Carter have a warm, soulful look. But the ones shown of Ford and Reagan are disappointing.
Im european, Did Trump host Obama and did Biden host Trump?
