The Oval Office is the formal office of the president of the united states which is located in the west wing of the white house,where he confers with heads of state, diplomats, his staff, and other politicians and where he deals with the

Each president decorated it according to his taste and certainly the decoration of that indicates interests and believes and memories of him.

desk remined the same for all presidents.

Then he speaks about the pictures in his office. Art may be selected from the White House collection, or may be borrowed for the length of an administration. Interestingly, he has selected several paintings depicting Texas scenes by Texas artists for his office. Many are on loan from museums in San Antonio and El Paso.
