The National Portrait Gallery will install a photograph of the late US Senator John McCain on its “In Memoriam” wall Monday morning. The 2005 portrait by photographer Steve Pyke will go up at 11:30 AM. It’s a temporary exhibition with no scheduled end date.
Flags all around DC, with the exception of those at the White House, were at half-mast Monday morning to mark McCain’s death. McCain will lie in state in the US Capitol on Friday and be buried in Annapolis on Sunday.
