The Oval Office

The weblog for the White House Museum at whitehousemuseum.org.

November 7, 2006

New front page

Changed the front page for the month to one of the Red Room in 1904, a hand-tinted photo by the wonderful Francis Benjamin Johnston.

This will last until early December, when I'll replace it with a nice, colorful photo showing the White House at Christmastime. I don't have one prepared yet, so anyone who has a good one, feel free to send me a link to it.

Also changed the Residence second floor back to showing the kitchen spiral staircase extending up into the family kitchen, based on information from a knowledgeable sourse.

Love it. That's a perfect photo for this month.

It is a beautiful photograph; I've always liked the Red Room. But, I think George and Martha are way out of proportion for the space.
