This oil portrait shows its sitter in later life, with white hair and a dark coat painted in deep, restrained tones. The gallery files it under Thomas Jefferson, the third president, whose likeness was painted and copied many times across his public career. Portraits of that era often kept the background plain to focus attention on the face, and the somber palette fits that tradition. Jefferson was known for plain dress, a deliberate contrast to the elaborate court fashions of Europe, so the understated black coat is worth noticing.
