The White House office of the First Lady on Monday released the official portrait of first lady Melania Trump, which was taken last week in the Yellow Oval Room of the official presidential residence. 

The black and white image was taken by Belgian photographer Régine Mahaux, according to ABC News. The official portraits of President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance were taken earlier this month, and released ahead of the inauguration. 

The release comes after she attended her husband's inauguration, and traveled with him to North Carolina last week to survey the damage caused by a major hurricane last year. The presidential couple also celebrated their 20-year wedding anniversary last week.
