Portraits of other recent predecessors with whom President Donald Trump has a contentious relationship, former President George W. Bush and his father, George H. W. Bush, have also been moved.
Trump directed staff to move the Obama portrait to the top of the Grand Staircase, two sources familiar with the matter told CNN, where it will now be out of view from thousands of visitors who tour the White House each day. One of the sources added that the portraits of both Bushes are also now in the staircase area.
Multiple sources have said that the president is directly involved with nearly everything that is done to the aesthetic of the White House, big or small.
CNN obtained a photo of the Obama portrait hanging at the top of the stairwell in a corner, at the landing of the entrance to the private residence. That area is heavily restricted to members of the first family, US Secret Service agents, and a limited number of White House and executive residence staff. It is firmly out of view for any visitor hoping to see the photorealistic Robert McCurdy painting of the former president, a source familiar with the matter confirmed.
It’s not the first time the Obama painting has been repositioned. In April, the Obama portrait was moved across the Grand Foyer of the White House and replaced with a painting of an iconic scene of Trump surviving an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania.
White House protocol and precedent calls for portraits of the most recent American presidents to be given the most prominent placement, in the entrance of the executive mansion, visible to guests during official events and visitors on tours.
A portrait of former President Joe Biden has not yet been completed.

LOL! That pic is the busiest looking piece of crap art I’ve ever seen.
It burns my eyeballs to look at it.
"I see a parasite. A sexually depraved miscreant who is seeking only to gratify his basest and most immediate urges."
He’s demonic. That’s why his portrait got dumped.
I remember way back watching TV, Obama was giving one of his demon speeches and my dad said, “I can see the devil in that man’s eyes.”
All of the sudden, it started pouring down rain, thunder and lightning started too and Obama had to abort his speech.
I guess God wasn’t happy with Obama either.
Obama just completed his third term, which Trump is rapidly destroying.
Hunter's working on it. This could take a while.
IS THE BIDEN PORTRAIT GOING TO BE HUNG NEAR WHERE THE COCAINE WAS FOUND???
Portraits on either side of a door.
Sign over the door says “All trash bags going to dock must be tied.”
OBAMA REMOVED & THEN RETURNED THE BUST OF WINSTON CHURCHILL BACK TO THE UK.
Build an outhouse by the White House vegetable garden, and hang Obozo and Bush portraits there.
A FITTING PICTURE OF WHAT PRESIDENT TRUMP IS DOING, BACK TO REAGAN.
A target in the urinal
This guy has a great sense for interior decorating.
LOL, more of “This is what I voted for!” :)
But one reason that I call him:
Son of Satan Barack Hussein Obama
Thats Great!
Next, hang them Backwards.
They wouldn’t fit in the trashcan?
They put us under the stairwell long ago.
You asked, “Where are Trump and Melania’s portraits from his first term?”
Great question
The headline says moved to hidden stairwell; the article says moved to top of grand staircase.
Big difference. It is hard to know what to believe when reading a modern journalist.
