The record gives only the name "Roosevelt," so this glass negative is best understood through the collection it belongs to and the man it most likely shows. The George Grantham Bain Collection holds roughly 40,000 negatives made by the Bain News Service, a New York agency that supplied newspapers with news photographs from about 1900 to 1920. Its files include many images of Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th president, whose vigorous public life made him one of the most photographed figures of his era. Because the title comes from unverified caption data, the sitter and occasion should be confirmed before relying on them.
