Woodrow Wilson is a 1918 ink by Timothy Cole, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting is a portrait of a man sitting in a chair, with his hands resting on the armrests. He is dressed in formal attire, including a suit jacket, vest, tie, and trousers. The background of the painting is dark, which helps to highlight the subject's features. The man's facial expression is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer. His hair is short and neatly combed, and he has a slight smile on his face. The overall mood of the painting is one of dignity and respect. The artist's use of shading and texture adds depth and dimension to the painting, making the subject appear lifelike. The painting is a wood engraving in black on wove paper, which gives it a unique and distinctive look. To learn more about the artist's technique, look up "engraving".
