Presidential Gallery

Sketch drawings of the 45 United States presidents. Each was initially drawn on a Post-It® from a photograph (or painting for the earlier ones) of the president. Visit the gallery on Instagram to see the originals as well as an in-progress set of U.S. First Ladies.

Below each sketch are the elections won by that president (if applicable) and his full term in office. Select any of the election years for an electoral map and other details.
