This wood engraving appeared in "Harper's Weekly" and is entitled "A 'Powwow' at the White House." The engraving shows President Hayes meeting with Native Americans in the East Room of the White House. Hayes hosted several Native American delegations during his time in office.

This pencil sketch by Albert Berghaus is of Inauguration Day 1877. Outgoing President Ulysses S. Grant and President-Elect Rutherford B. Hayes leave the White House for the ceremony at the Capitol. Berghaus was a Reconstruction-era American illustrator who worked for Frank Leslie's Weekly. Berghaus' original works are extremely rare and few are in private collections. This sketch appears to be preliminary, with details such as the detailed stonework over the entrance to the North Portico only partially completed, as though Berghaus intended to use it for a larger work or finish the sketch later. See image 8772 to see the reverse side sketch and inscription.

This engraving of President Rutherford B. Hayes was produced by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Hayes won the highly-contested presidential election of 1877 against Democrat Samuel Tilden by a single electoral vote. Prior to the presidency, Hayes practiced as a lawyer in Cincinnati, Ohio, fought with the Union's Army of the Shenandoah during the Civil War, and served as governor and a member of the United States House of Representatives for the state of Ohio. In support of the temperance movement, neither Hayes nor his wife Lucy served alcohol at the White House, and instead would entertain guests by inviting them to enjoy the fragrant blooms in the White House conservatories.

This engraving shows President Rutherford B. Hayes, First Lady Lucy Webb Hayes, two of their children (likely Frances and Scott), and their friends enjoying an evening of entertainment in their library. This room is now the Yellow Oval Room, located on the Second Floor of the Executive Mansion. At the piano is Secretary of the Interior Carl Schurz. The engraving, possibly tinted by P. Hall Baglie, was based on a sketch by Georgie A. Davis and appeared in "Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper."

This oil on canvas portrait of President Rutherford B. Hayes was done by Daniel Huntington. In the beginning of Huntington's career, he painted landscapes in the tradition of the Hudson River School, but later predominately produced portraits. Prior to being president, Hayes served in the Union Army during the Civil War as an officer and was promoted to colonel and then to brevet brigadier general. After the war he was the U.S. Representative for Ohio's second district before being twice elected that state's governor. He served as president from March 4, 1877 until March 4, 1881.
