Presidential and First Lady portraits, photos or paintings

Grace Anna Goodhue Coolidge (1879-1957), wife of Calvin Coolidge (1872-1929), 30th President.

With Rob Roy, painted by Howard Chandler Christy (1873-1952), 1924

In my opinion, one of the finest portraits of a First Lady. Compare the photo below, which, while flattering, is so much less interesting than the painting.
