Lyndon B. Johnson is the subject of this head-and-shoulders portrait, shown turned toward the right, a pose that suits the formal portrait style of the mid-century years. The record dates the image only to the period between 1950 and 1970, which spans his years as a Texas senator, Senate majority leader, and then vice president before he became the 36th president in 1963 after John F. Kennedy's assassination. Portraits of him from these decades were widely circulated by government offices, the press, and political supporters, so the picture reflects how a rising national figure was presented to the public during that era.
