  • France Invades the 1961 White House
    France Invades the 1961 White House Christopher Early East Carolina University Visual Arts and Design Faculty Mentor Hunt McKinnon East Carolina University Throughout its history, America‟s White House has undergone many changes through its many administrations. While a select few presidents worked to improve it, most others merely neglected it. No one, however, worked harder in restoring the White House interior than Jacqueline Kennedy, wife of President John F. Kennedy, who occupied the Executive Mansion from January 1961 until November 1963. Soon after Kennedy‟s election to the presidency in November 1960, a pregnant Jacqueline Kennedy visited the White House, as per protocol, and was given a tour of her soon-to-be-home by the outgoing First Lady, Mamie Eisenhower. “Jackie‟s first visit to the White House was her coming-out party as the next first lady.” 1 After viewing the condition of the White House, Mrs. Kennedy was appalled by its drab furniture and design. She was shocked that the White House interior, that of America‟s preeminent home, had been so woefully decorated. To her, it was nothing short of a national disgrace. Soon after taking up residence in the White House, both the President and his First Lady were struck by how depressing, drab, and tasteless the home appeared. Furniture in rooms did not match with each other, nor did paintings adorning the walls. There were no unifying themes in individual rooms or the mansion as a whole. “To her dismay she found the upstairs family quarters decorated with what she called „early Statler‟; it was so cheerless and undistinguished it wasn‟t even worthy of a second-class hotel.

  • Designing the White House: 1792 – 1830
    Classroom Resource Packet Designing the White House: 1792 – 1830 INTRODUCTION As the president’s office and home, the White House stands as a symbol of American leadership. President George Washington selected the site and approved the final design, but he never had an opportunity to live in the building once known as the “President’s Palace.” When the initial construction was finished in 1800, John Adams became the first president to occupy this famous home. Explore the design and creation of the building from its inception, to the burning by the British in 1814, and the completion of the porticoes by 1830 that resulted in the White House’s iconic appearance. CONTEXTUAL ESSAY In 1790, Congress passed the Residence Act, which established a permanent national capital to be built on the Potomac River. President George Washington had the authority to pick the specific site of the capital city, and he selected engineer and architect Pierre Charles L’Enfant to begin planning the city streets inside a 10-mile square section of farmland (Image 1). Washington chose the spot for the President’s House, and L’Enfant set aside this space for what he called a “palace” for the president (Image 2). L’Enfant’s original plan for the President’s House was five times the size of the house which would be built, so “palace” seemed appropriate at the time. But for a new republic whose leaders would be ordinary citizens—not kings— the building was scaled back, and so was its name. It became known Image 2 as simply “The President’s House.” After George Washington dismissed L'Enfant for insubordination in early 1792, Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson organized a design contest and announced a prize of five hundred dollars or a medal of that value for the best design of the President’s House.

  • Chapter Twenty-Five “This Damned Old House” the Lincoln Family In
    Chapter Twenty-five “This Damned Old House” The Lincoln Family in the Executive Mansion During the Civil War, the atmosphere in the White House was usually sober, for as John Hay recalled, it “was an epoch, if not of gloom, at least of a seriousness too intense to leave room for much mirth.”1 The death of Lincoln’s favorite son and the misbehavior of the First Lady significantly intensified that mood. THE WHITE HOUSE The White House failed to impress Lincoln’s other secretaries, who disparaged its “threadbare appearance” and referred to it as “a dirty rickety concern.”2 A British journalist thought it beautiful in the moonlight, “when its snowy walls stand out in contrast to the night, deep blue skies, but not otherwise.”3 The Rev. Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler asserted that the “shockingly careless appearance of the White House proved that whatever may have been Mrs. Lincoln’s other good qualities, she hadn’t earned the compliment which the Yankee farmer paid to his wife when he said: ‘Ef my wife haint got an ear fer music, she’s got an eye for dirt.’”4 The north side of the Executive 1 John Hay, “Life in the White House in the Time of Lincoln,” in Michael Burlingame, ed., At Lincoln’s Side: John Hay’s Civil War Correspondence and Selected Writings (Carbondale: Southern Illinois University Press, 2000), 134. 2 William O.
