Detail of the Red Room, Obama Administration
This detail of the Red Room was taken in 2009 by Bruce White. In this shot are a guéridon (small, circular French table) made by Charles Honoré Lannuier, an American Empire style sofa, and Thomas Moran's 1895 painting "The Three Tetons". The Red Room is located on the State Floor of the Executive Mansion. The room was first decorated with red fabrics during the James K. Polk administration in 1845. The space is often filled with furnishings in the American Empire or Grecian style. The parlor has been used for intimate receptions, teas, and meetings.
