what paintings are in the oval office
I especially liked the fact that the painting was in the collection of The White House. Months later, I was watching Oprah Winfreyâs interview of newly inaugurated President Barack Obama, there was The Avenue in the Rain. Hanging in The Oval Office! The Avenue in the Rain (Flag Day), 1917, is one of a series of over 25 patriotically inspired flag paintings by Childe Hassam (1858-1935), a leading American impressionist artist.
