Yet they are still art. What the artist had in mind and what the subject had in mind will never be exactly the same. One example is President Lyndon B. Johnson&#8217;s official White House Portrait. Johnson chose Peter Hurd to create his image on canvas for the White House. But when Hurd showed the image to Johnson, he said it was \u201cthe ugliest thing I ever saw.\u201d Hurd later gave it to the National Portrait Gallery.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 260px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.zatista.com\/art\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2010\/01\/250px-Lyndon_B._Johnson_-_portrait.gif2_.png\" alt=\"250px-Lyndon_B._Johnson_-_portrait.gif\" width=\"250\" height=\"313\" \/><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">&quot;The ugliest thing I ever saw.&quot; -Lyndon B.
