- Lot Description
Donald Moss (American, 1920 - 2010) "The White House" Signed lower right. Original Oil painting on Cold Press Illustration Board.
Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.
In 1791, a prestigious competition was held to design the President's residence in the new capital city of Washington. Many prominent architects, including Thomas Jefferson, submitted their ideas. The honor, and an award of $500, went to Irish-American James Hoban, whose sketch was approved by George Washington. Completed in 1800, the Palladian style Georgian mansion was first referredto as the President's House, then as the Executive Mansion. However, it soon became known as the "White House" because of its white-grey sandstone exterior. During the War of 1812, British troops burned the building, with only the charred exterior walls remaining. Under direction of Hoban, the structure was rebuilt and enlarged. Today the White House is the oldest federal building in the capital. Located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C., the White House remains the official residence of the President of the United States and his family. The home of every President except George Washington, who died before construction was completed, the 132-room mansion stands in the center of 18 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. Under guidance of First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy, the White House Historical Association was founded in 1961. Three years later, President Lyndon B. Johnson established the Committee for the Preservation of the White House. Today, the White House, symbol of the greatness of America, receives over one and a half million visitors every year.
