Prankster puts Putin portrait in Colorado Capitol where Trump's portrait would be
For a brief time on Thursday, a portrait of Russian President Vladimir Putin was on display in Colorado's Capitol building in a space designated for President Trump’s portrait.
The portrait of Putin was reportedly put up on an easel on Capitol’s wall of presidential portraits by an unknown prankster. It was later taken down by a tour guide, according to Denver NBC affiliate, 9News.
Before the portrait was removed, however, Colorado State Sen. Steve Fenberg (D) shared a photo of the display on Twitter.
The spot, which is designated for Trump’s portrait, is reportedly blank due to a lack of donations made to the Colorado Citizens for Culture. The group is tasked with collecting donations for presidential portraits to be commissioned and placed in the Capitol.

Well done.....
I'm now very proud of my state! 
Born and raised there.. just lived a few dozen other places after my upbringing.
Thank You, ProudLib72 .. are you in Denver?
Grew up on the front range and went to undergrad at CU Boulder. I've lived in Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Durango, Grand Junction, and up in Genesee. Whew, now that I think about it, I've moved a LOT! 
Hugo(way small town 100 miles East of Kansas).. and then in '90, from San Diego, CA.. I went back to Colorado to be by my Mom.. and lived in Lakewood again before I took off for Kauai in '92.
Yes, you have moved a lot and I can relate!
