Photos show US presidents at play
BBC


An intimate portrait of Lyndon B Johnson

An exhibition of rarely seen photos of US presidents has opened in Washington, revealing unguarded moments from their spells at the peak of power.

Some of the pictures displayed at the National Archives show unfamiliar images of familiar recent figures.

They include Ronald Reagan laughing at one of his own jokes, and Lyndon B Johnson howling with his dog.

Others date much further back. The first of the 40 pictures shows James Buchanan, president from 1857 to 1861.
