See the original photograph in ”The Roosevelts: Public Figures, Private Lives,” a new exhibit opening this spring at the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum.
Franklin Roosevelt’s harsher critics sometimes compared him to a dictator. In 1934, the President and his staff turned this criticism into a lighthearted joke at FDR’s 52nd birthday party. Roosevelt is Caesar, and Eleanor Roosevelt is sitting behind the President dressed as the Oracle of Delphi. Find out who wore the toga in this blog post.
