This photograph of a pier table and vase in the Ground Floor Corridor was taken in March 1962 by Bates Littlehales, during the John F. Kennedy administration. The pier table is by Charles Honoré Lannuier and resembles a similar but earlier French table in the White House. Lannuier was inspired by French design that used forms and details drawn from antiquity. The vase is attributed to the firm of Pierre-Louis Dagoty of Paris, and depicts a landscape with Byzantine general Belisarius. The swans on the handles are often seen on French Empire objects.
