  • 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.

  • Public Spaces of the White House
    Classroom Resource Packet Public Spaces of the White House INTRODUCTION Thousands of people visit the White House every year. During public tours, visitors walk through rooms that have been used by presidents and their families for over two centuries. Years ago, curious guests could knock on the front door of the White House and ask to see inside. Today, visitors wait weeks or even months to gain access for a tour of the President’s House. Discover the history and different uses of the public spaces that are part of the public tour of the White House. CONTEXTUAL ESSAY In recent years, visitors pass through the East Wing to enter the main part of the White House on the Ground Floor. Until 1902, the Ground Floor was primarily a basement area that housed kitchens, a furnace room, and storage (Image 1). Today, the finished space contains several public rooms that hold important artifacts of American history (Image 2). One of the first rooms that visitors see is the Library. This was first created as a private library for President Franklin Roosevelt in 1935 (Image 3). The China Room, once a cloakroom, now displays examples of china and glassware from nearly every presidential administration (Image 4). The full-length portrait of First Lady Grace Coolidge inspired the red decorations of the room. Portraits of other first ladies hang in the Vermeil Room, which contains the White House collection of gilded silver, or vermeil, giving the room its name (Image 5). Image 3 From the Ground Floor, visitors walk upstairs to the State Floor.

    The White House Washington, D.C., USA Booklet available on: Das Heft ist verfügbar auf: Livret disponible sur : Folleto disponible en: Folheto disponível em: A füzet elérhető: www.LEGO.com James Hoban James Hoban, 1762-1831, was born in Desart, near Callan, County Kilkenny, Ireland. Hoban was raised at Cuffesgrange, architecture at the Royal Dublin Society. During the American Revolutionary War, Hoban emigrated to the United States, and established himself as an architect in Philadelphia in 1781. Hoban moved to South Carolina in 1787, with his brothers Philip and Joseph; he lived there for at least six more years. We know little of Hoban’s life in South Carolina except that he formed a partnership with carpenter Pierce Purcell and became well known among the gentry for his ability as an architect and builder. He was a founding vestryman in 1791 of Saint Mary’s Church, the first Catholic church established in the Carolinas. Among Hoban’s references were some of the most prominent citizens of Charleston: Henry Laurens, a close friend of President George Washington; fellow Association. White House Historical (White The House Collection). Irishman Aedanus Burke; and American Revolutionary War General William Moultrie. Hoban’s name has been connected with public buildings and plantation houses in the Charleston area, most notably Seabrook house. Another prominent building in Charleston, actually documented as a Hoban design, was a 1,200-seat theater on Savage’s Green that no longer survives. James Hoban The plan of Washington In 1791 President George Washington appointed Pierre Charles L’Enfant to design the new capital city.
