Red Room Tea Party

Red Room Tea Party

Creator: T. Nebbia, August 1960.

In preparation for an afternoon tea party during the Eisenhower Administration, the Red Room is set with a tea table, a silver tea set, and Franklin D. Roosevelt's White House china. A White House staff member makes final touches to the room in the background. Above the fireplace hangs President Woodrow Wilson's portrait, and an 18th century clock given by a French president sits on the mantle.
