(MENAFN- Live Mint) The White House unveiled the official portrait of US First Lady Melania Trump. The black-and-white image features Melania in a suit, standing by a window with the Washington Monument visible in the background.
Sharing the portrait on X, the First Lady wrote, "First Lady Melania trump ' s Official White House Portrait."
