This photograph of the Red Room was taken by David Wiegold on December 2, 2024 during a press preview of the White House holiday decorations. President Joseph R. Biden and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden selected "A Season of Peace and Light" as the 2024 holiday theme. For President and Dr. Biden’s final winter holiday season at the White House, the décor was inspired by the spirit of goodwill and gratitude and the festive opening of the doors to the President’s House. The center Christmas tree in the Red Room was decorated with white paper doves carrying red envelopes bearing messages of peace. Throughout the room were also letters sent by children to President and Dr. Biden, a white and red floral garland across the mantel, and the traditional Red Room cranberry tree.
