Rembrandt Peale


This is a painting of my favorite president. Unfortunately, we do not have photographs of people from this era so we do not know that this is exactly what he looked like, but we know that this is really, really close. One of the things that sells me on this painting is the emotion in his eyes. When I look at his eyes, I feel like he is looking into my soul....that he knows things about me that others don't know. The lines on his face help promote the feeling of emotion within the painting. This painting is a very telling painting of our third president
