EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the elegance and grandeur of the State Dining Room in the White House during the early 1900s. The room, which was renovated by the architectural firm of McKim, Mead, and White between 1902 and 1906, showcases intricately designed furniture and furnishings, including ornate candelabras and glassware. The room's interior decoration is a testament to the opulence of the era, with its high ceilings, intricate moldings, and richly colored fabrics. At the head of the table sits Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt, the wife of President Theodore Roosevelt, who served as First Lady from 1901 to 1909. Edith, who was known for her refined taste and elegant style, would have overseen the renovation of the State Dining Room, ensuring that it reflected the sophistication and elegance expected of the White House. The photograph, which is believed to have been taken between 1900 and 1906, is a dry plate or glass negative, a photographic process that was popular during the early 1900s. The image, which is part of the collections of the Library of Congress, provides a rare glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the history and heritage of the White House and the people who have called it home. The State Dining Room, which continues to serve as a venue for formal dinners and state functions, remains an iconic symbol of American history and presidential tradition.
