White House officials have apparently rehung portraits of former Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton in a prominent location after former President Trump’s staff broke tradition by moving them away from areas typically used by guests.

CNN reported Monday that a White House official said the two portraits were returned to the Grand Foyer of the Executive Mansion; previously, Trump White House officials had placed them in the Old Family Dining Room, a smaller, less-visited area.

The change reportedly occurred within hours of President Biden taking office.

……..

Bush and Clinton are the two most recent presidents to see their portraits hung in the White House; former President Obama’s White House portrait has yet to be unveiled.
