(SeaPRwire) - 现任美国总统的画像面带血迹,背景是美国国旗,现悬挂于大厅前厅
白宫已将一幅极具戏剧性的美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的画作陈列在东翼大厅前厅的显眼位置,取代了前总统巴拉克·奥巴马的官方画像。
这幅新作品描绘了特朗普面带血迹,背景是美国国旗,捕捉到他在 2024 年 7 月于宾夕法尼亚州巴特勒举行的竞选集会上遭遇未遂暗杀后,紧握拳头的那一刻。这一戏剧性的场景,展现了特勤局特工冲上前保护特朗普,而他则挑衅地做出姿态,成为了他连任竞选的一个标志性形象,呼应了他“战斗,战斗,战斗”的口号。
“白宫的一些新艺术品 👀,”政府周五通过其官方 X 账户发布,分享了一段关于这幅画作的短视频。
这幅肖像画基于 New York Times 摄影师 Doug Mills 的一张照片,由艺术家 Marc Lipp 创作,并由校园安全倡导者 Andrew Pollack 捐赠,他的女儿 Meadow 在 2018 年帕克兰学校枪击案中丧生。
一些批评人士指出,大厅前厅的这个位置传统上是为近期总统的画像保留的。然而,他们也承认,特朗普本人作为前总统,并没有违反任何官方礼仪。
白宫发言人 Harrison Fields 澄清说,尽管奥巴马的画像为了给这幅新画让路而被移走,但它仍然在另一个俯瞰着一架曾经由 Franklin D. Roosevelt 演奏过的 Steinway 大钢琴的显眼位置公开展示。
“奥巴马仍然在白宫国宾层的入口大厅里,” Fields 在 X 上写道。该位置之前是 George W. Bush 的画像,据报道现在已被移至楼梯区域。
