On November 22, 1963, in Dealy Plaza, Dallas, United States President John F. Kennedy (JFK) was fatally shot riding in an open top vehicle in a motorcade. The killer was identified as Lee Harvey Oswald who used a school book depository that overlooked the path of the convoy as a sniper nest. This photograph is the last image of JFK before the shooting, and it shows how blissfully unaware the occupants of the vehicle are of the impending assassination. JFK was speaking to Nellie Connally, First Lady of Texas, who was sitting in the front seat and told JFK, "Mr. President, you can't say Dallas doesn't love you," and the President replied “"No, you certainly can't.” These were the last words spoken by one of the most beloved U.S. Presidents in history.
