President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration portrait was unveiled Wednesday evening.
The black-and-white photo of Trump shows the soon-to-be 47th president with a stern expression and a closed mouth, resembling his mug shot taken in August 2023 after he was indicted on election racketeering charges in Georgia.

Trump’s newest inauguration photo, however, is a sharp contrast to the one taken eight years ago. The inauguration photo for 2017 showed a colorful Trump with a toothy grin.
