Trump's 2025 presidential portrait appears similar, if more starkly lit, to his December 2016 portrait as president-elect.

His first official presidential portrait, however, released nine months into his first term in 2017, shows him smiling.

Trump and Vance will both take the oath of office at their inauguration ceremony on Monday local time in Washington DC.
