Stephen Colbert's Portrait to Hang Between Bathrooms at the Smithsonian Once Again

Photo Credit: Scott Gries/PictureGroup/Comedy Central(WASHINGTON) — Following the end of his nine-year run on Comedy Central, and in advance of his move to CBS to take over The Late Show, Stephen Colbert will have a portrait hung in the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery for the second time.

The comedian’s eponymous hit show, The Colbert Report, ran from October 2005 through Thursday, capping off a run over more than 1,400 episodes.

The National Portrait Gallery confirmed the second portrait on its blog on Friday. The new portrait, the gallery says, “shows the shameless self-promoter reflected in a mirror.” Outdoing Colbert’s 2008 portrait — which featured a three-deep image of the performer — the new portrait features six images of Colbert, wearing different ties and holding different props from his show, including a pair of Emmy awards and his best-selling book.

The new portrait will grace the same space as Colbert’s first — between the second-floor restrooms.

It will be on display until April 19, 2015.
