Historical Background behind the design

Burned President's House

First Lady Dolley Madison is often credited with saving the portrait of George Washington and other White House treasures when the British attacked the Capitol in 1814. But few accounts mention the help she received from one of her enslaved servants.

Read "How Dolley Madison saved the portrait of Washington from British troops in 1814, with help from Paul Jennings, John Susé, Jacob Barker, and Robert G. L. De Peyster, among others" for a detailed account on the events right before the Burning of Washington and what others had to say about Dolley Madison's courageous act.
