As one of the last Founding Fathers to remain politically active in 1820, most people considered him to be unopposed in his bid for a second term. His success reflected the Era of Good Feelings\u00e2\u0080\u0094the period following the War of 1812 that was marked by the temporary suspension of two-party factionalism. The Monroe Doctrine, the enduring legacy of his administration, articulated opposition to European meddling in the Western Hemisphere and became a keystone of American foreign policy. When Monroe was first elected, in 1816, the majority of voters did not know what he looked like. His friend John Vanderlyn, who had recently returned from studying art in Paris, painted two portraits of him. Monroe gave one to his friend James Madison and kept this one. With the careful rendering of Monroe\u00e2\u0080\u0099s features, the highly finished surface, and the clarity of lighting, Vanderlyn\u00e2\u0080\u0099s painting exemplifies the French neoclassical style that was prevalent at the time. The image was quickly engraved for public dissemination."}, {"label": "Exhibition Label", "content": "5o presidente, 1817\u00e2\u0080\u00931825"}, {"label": "Exhibition Label", "content": "James Monroe continu\u00c3\u00b3 la dinast\u00c3\u00ada virginiana de presidentes dem\u00c3\u00b3cratas-republicanos interrumpida por la administraci\u00c3\u00b3n de John Adams.
