James Abram Garfield - 20th President of the United States - Graphite
James Abram Garfield was the 2nd of four presidents to be assassinated, only 6 months into his term by Charles Guiteau, an entitled cunt who believed he deserved a government job. He is the only sitting member of the United States House of Representatives to be elected to the presidency. He was a major general in the Civil War and believed it to be a holy crusade against slavery. He was born into poverty, was the president of Williams College at the age of 26 and thankfully, was the last president to have a full beard, which makes my job as an artist, much easier.
