"Truth, Beauty & A Picture of You" is a "Best of" compilation album by The Whitlams.

The album is a comprehensive look at the journey of the ARIA award winning band, from scrappy beginnings and tragedy to the success and stability of recent years.

The title comes from a lyric in the track "No Aphrodisiac"

"I actually wanted to call it Long Story Short (a title taken by new Tamworth band Chasing Bailey). If you listen to the songs you get exactly an understanding of where we've been." - Tim Freedman [cite web | last = Compton| first = Maz | title = A true picture of The Whitlams | publisher = The Daily Telegraph | date = 2008-08-10 | url = http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,,24148037-5009160,00.html | accessdate = 2008-08-10 ]

A two disc deluxe edition includes a bonus DVD with documentaries on the making of the "Love This City" and "Torch the Moon" albums, and footage of their concerts at the Sydney Opera House last year with the Sydney Symphony."
