## Resource

Step into the personal world of James K. Polk at his Tennessee home, where portraits show his striking transformation from 1845 to 1847, his reading glasses reveal his daily habits, and his wife’s exquisite Parisian china—each plate adorned with a different botanically accurate flower—shines as a presidential treasure. Discover the roots of his middle initial “K” through his mother’s portrait, learn about his brother’s fatal duel, and explore rooms he once shared with siblings, plus a fountain from his Nashville home gifted by mentor Felix Grundy. This museum brings the human side of history to life, revealing the family and personal touches behind the presidency.
