The eighth President of the United States, from 1833 to 1837, Martin Van Buren. This photo is from around 1857, give or take a couple of tears.
Although he was the first president to have been born a United States citizen, his first language was Dutch, and he is the only U.S. President with English as a second language.
Original B&W photo from the Mathew Brady studio.
