A richly illustrated celebration of the paintings of President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama

From the moment of their unveiling at the National Portrait Gallery in early 2018, the portraits of Barack and Michelle Obama have become two of the most beloved artworks of our time. Kehinde Wiley's portrait of President Obama and Amy Sherald's portrait of the former first lady have inspired unprecedented responses from the public, and attendance at the museum has more than doubled as visitors travel from near and far to view these larger-than-life paintings. After witnessing a woman drop to her knees in prayer before the portrait of Barack Obama, one guard said, No other painting gets the same kind of reactions. Ever. The Obama Portraits is the first book about the making, meaning, and significance of these remarkable artworks.

Richly illustrated with images of the portraits, exclusive pictures of the Obamas with the artists during their sittings, and photos of the historic unveiling ceremony by former White House photographer Pete Souza, this book offers insight into what these paintings can tell us about the history of portraiture and American culture. The volume also features a transcript of the unveiling ceremony, which includes moving remarks by the Obamas and the artists. A reversible dust jacket allows readers to choose which portrait to display on the front cover.

An inspiring history of the creation and impact of the Obama portraits, this fascinating book speaks to the power of art--especially portraiture--to bring people together and promote cultural change.

Perfect "To Go" Untuck Shirt for all summer events!
Size: XX-Large, Color: White-all White
LOVE LOVE LOVE this shirt! Great quality. The material is soft and just thick enough to not be see-through but cool for our Southern summers or tropical locations. The only thing I would say is depending on your arm to shoulder size, you may want to go up a size. I originally bought an xl for my husband, but it was a little snug at arm hole area, so we exchanged it for a xxl (it is designed so you do not have to tuck it in so the xxl fit and looks great.) I reordered in the blue also. Excellent for weddings, dinner, outings etc.. definitely recommend!

Nice and comfy, light duty and feel great.
Size: X-Large, Color: Light Green
What they may lack in "durability" i.e. very light and thin = not going to last all that long, they make up for in fit [yes even for wide shoulders], comfort and style. If you want them to last, suggest a gentle cycle and just take ot easy on them. They are light, thin, and airy. Nice summer shirt.

Nice shirt
Size: Medium, Color: Light Green
The shirt is true to size. I'm 5'10" and 160 lbs. and the medium fits well. It is light and airy, and after light pressing holds its shape well. The little cuff on the sleeve is a nice touch. Be aware that the buttons are hidden (if that's the look you're going for). I can't speak to durability as I have only worn it once. I have several Coofandy shirts and they are all nice garments.

Great for the price
Size: Medium, Color: Grey
Nice and light material. Looks good. Suitable for hot temperatures and casual attire. The only thing I've noticed so far that isn't so great, is that the buttons are rather cheap and the middle part broke out on a few of them. Expect to resow some buttons. Otherwise great
