    The White House historical association official, 2020 White House ornament honoring John Fitzgerald Kennedy, the 35th president of the United States. With this ornament, we remember President Kennedy through his posthumous official White House portrait made in 1970 by Aaron Shikler, The artist selected by the president's widow, Jacqueline Kennedy. The portrait symbolic of his unfinished presidency hangs in the White House today. Shikler recalled that Mrs Kennedy did not want the portrait to look the way other artists have portrayed him. I painted him with his head bowed, not because I think of him as a martyr, Shikler said. But because I wanted to show him as a president who was a thinker. All presidential portraits have eyes that look right at you. I wanted to do something with more meaning. I hope to show a courage that made him humble. The reverse of the ornament features the dates of President Kennedy's brief term 1961-1963. On the other side of an engraving of the White House.
