The President's House

The President’s House
This view of the White House is a reproduction of the painting The President’s House by an unknown artist. Based on an 1836-7 engraving by English artist William Bartlett (1809-1854), the painting is a romanticized view of the White House during Andrew Jackson’s presidency. Because this painting was a favorite of President Carter, he displayed it in the Oval Office, and the Carters used the image for their 1980 Christmas card.
