About the piece

This 1885 oil portrait by Daniel Huntington depicts Chester Alan Arthur, the 21st U.S. President, in a moment of formal repose. The artist employs a rich, atmospheric palette and masterful lighting to emphasize the texture of the fur-lined coat and the statesman's authoritative presence within a grand, architectural setting.
