Indiana Republican Sen. James E. Watson is the subject of this portrait, which is dated November 28, 1923. Watson had entered the Senate in 1916 and remained a prominent figure in his party through the 1920s. The National Photo Company, a Washington studio that documented officials and public life in the early twentieth century, made the image on a glass plate. Viewers may notice streaks and blemishes, which the record attributes to natural deterioration of the original coatings.
