Woodrow Wilson

Timothy Cole, after John Singer Sargent

National Gallery of Art

The image is a portrait showing the upper three-quarters of a man's body. He is seated in an armchair, facing slightly to his left with his body angled towards the viewer. The man features short hair that is parted to the side and has a clean-shaven face, with a serious expression. He is dressed in a formal suit consisting of a dark jacket, a vest, and a tie over a white shirt. His right hand rests on the arm of the chair while his left hand is placed on his lap. In the background, there is a dark, plain backdrop highlighting the subject. A round table is partially visible beside him. The artist's signature, "Timothy Cole," is at the bottom of the portrait.
