ELEANOR ROOSEVELT'S COPY OF THE OFFICIAL WHITE HOUSE PORTRAIT OF HER HUSBAND, THE PRESIDENT, IN A SILVER CARTIER FRAME
Salisbury's large oil portrait, which depicts the President seated at his desk in the Oval Office, was commissioned from the English portraitist by the New York Geneological and Biographical Society. It proved such a successful portrait that Salisbury painted a number of copies for various institutions. The sitter himself "thought it the best portrait of himself, and presented inscribed copies of the print to family and friends" (O.L. Graham and M.R. Wander. Franklin D. Roosevelt: His Life and Times, p.334).
Provenance: Eleanor Roosevelt, the gift of the artist. Prominently displayed for many years at Val-Kill Cottage, where it is shown in photographs of the living room.
