Carriage at North Portico Painting

Creator: Edward Weber and Company, 1849.

In 1830, President Jackson completed the North Portico started under John Quincy Adams. Columns surround the outline of the portico, and iron fences adorned the north façade from 1833 to 1902. In this view, a horse-drawn carriage approaches the North Portico. A statue of Thomas Jefferson is on the north lawn.
