One painting I like a lot is on the wall in the Oval Office.

Childe Hassam is one of my favorite American painters. I believe this one is Flags on Fifth Avenue. I hope President Biden will keep it. I doubt Trump cared.

1. I like this painting a lot,too

No doubt Dumpy probably never even looked at it because it wasn’t a mirror.

2. I noticed it was on the cover of one of Jon Meacham's books.

5. Yes--very nice. And I love the website. I need to acquaint myself with him.

Some of his work reminds me of a few Monets I have seen. Like 'Promenade', shown
on the site.

7. He had to be greatly affected by the French Impressionists. But it is great to have our own

Fifth Avenue in New York City immortalized in this fashion.
