The Truman Interiors: State Room Trumeau
This photograph of the State Dining Room was taken by Abbie Rowe of the National Park Service in 1952, after the completion of the four-year Truman renovation. On display is a 17th century English trumeau, or pier glass, that was a gift from King George VI of Great Britain to celebrate the finished renovation. The trumeau was installed prominently on the north wall of the room along with a pair of bronze gilded and blue spar candelabra by Matthew Boulton, a metalsmith from Birmingham.
