The President's House, December 1800

This painting of a New Year's Eve reception at the White House was created by artist Tom Freeman in 2000, during President Bill Clinton's administration. As part of a celebration of the 200th anniversary of the occupancy of the White House, the White House Historical Association commissioned this painting depicting guests arriving at the south entrance of the President's House in 1800 for a levee hosted by President John Adams. ***Interior use only for publications***
