This photograph of the State Dining Room was taken in 1903 during the Theodore Roosevelt administration. In 1902 President Roosevelt spearheaded a large renovation of the White House. The State Dining Room, seen here in its completion, had oak paneling and was decorated with animal heads, much in line with Roosevelt's personality and tastes.
