This photograph shows a parlor in the Roosevelt family's Washington residence, which during Theodore Roosevelt's presidency was the White House. The family moved in after William McKinley's assassination in 1901 and lived there until 1909, a period when Roosevelt's large household, with six children, filled the building with activity. Turn-of-the-century parlors like this one typically combined upholstered furniture, patterned rugs, and decorative objects, offering a view of how an early twentieth-century presidential family furnished its most formal living space.
